Frey studied composition with Antonio Salieri in Vienna. From 1823 to 1832 he was conductor of the orchestra of the Mannheim National Theatre. His successor was Joseph Eschborn. He composed a violin concerto and three operas, including the singspiel, Jery und Bätely, based on a libretto by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, which was received with applause by music critics.
