His son Adolphe Adam is known as the composer of the ballet Giselle.<br>"Dussek is an unjustly neglected composer. Admittedly some of his more insignificant works. are trivial and deservedly forgotten but there is a body of piano sonatas piano concertos and chamber works that are of sufficient musical worth to be performed and enjoyed today. His music seems to have been received with enthusiasm in his own time; reviews of the original editions in the Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung praise Dussek's originality and expressiveness and the appropriateness to the piano of his melody harmony and scoring . Most of his works were reprinted at least once and some as many as ten times some important works appeared in as many as three different editions by Breitkopf & Härtel alone who issued a 12-volume collected edition of his works just after his death."
