After a brief period as a school teacher, he became a lecturer at the Rheinische Musikschule in Cologne in 1968.
He was also a member of the Gruppe 8 Köln, an association of Cologne composers, from 1968 to 1972, and is counted as a composer of the Cologne School (music).
In 1968 he received the award Premio Marzotto and a scholarship from the Villa Massimo.
From 1974 to 2000 Riehm was a professor for composition and music theory at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Frankfurt am Main.
