Description:

  • Accompaniment: Piano
Xavier Boisselot studied composition at the Conservatoire in Paris. In 1836 he won the 1er Grand prix de Rome with the cantata Velléda. His opera Ne touchez pas à la reine premiered in 1847, followed by Mosquita la sorcière. Despite his growing successes, he reduced his compositional activities after 1850 to take over the management of his father's piano factory Boisselot & Fils in Marseille. The flautist Jean Rémusat came from Bordeaux, won the 1er prix at the Conservatoire in Paris in 1832 as a pupil of Jean-Louis Tulou, and became 1st flautist at the Queen's Theatre in London. After its closure in 1853, he spent more years in Paris at the Théâtre Lyrique and eventually moved to Shanghai as a conductor. There he died at the age of 65. Rémusat - often called without a first name - is often encountered by us flutists as an arranger of well-known pieces of the time.
