Biography

A student of Aimé Leborne[4] at the Conservatoire de Paris, he won first grand prix de Rome for musical composition in 1848.[2][5]

After the success of his opéra comique Les Trovatelles, performed at Salle Favart in 1854 and his operetta M'sieu Landry, premiered at Théâtre des Bouffes-Parisiens in 1856, expectations were high for the young composer.[6] His following works, however, including the operas La Déesse et le Berger (1863), La Fiancée de Corinthe (1867), and Le Cerisier (1874), rapidly fell into obscurity.[7]

He was appointed a professor of harmony at the conservatory in 1871.[8] He published several arrangements of La Marseillaise,^{[citation needed]} wrote music for male chorus and one symphony.[9] His pupils included Robert Planquette,[2] Georges Douay,[2] and Antoine Simon.[10]

His grave at Montmartre Cemetery is decorated with a medallion by sculptor Gabriel Thomas.[11][12]

He was made chevalier of the Légion d'honneur in 1886.[5][8]
