G GOUNOD, CHARLES-FRANCOIS BIOGRAPHY Gounod had a particularly strong influence on French composers from the middle of the 19th century. He was educated at the Paris Conservatoire, where he won the Prix de Rome in 1837. His return to Paris in 1843, after developing a wide knowledge of earlier and contemporary music abroad, brought a position as an organist. He achieved considerable success in the theatre, particularly with the opera Faust in 1859, but the Franco- Prussian War of 1870 and a period spent in England, brought a largely unprofitable interruption. His influence on English vocal music, however, was perceptible and not always for the best. Operas Church Music Orchestral Music Gounod wrote two symphonies, but it is his Petite symphonie of 1885, for ten wind instruments, that has proved more attractive.

Charles Gounod Charles Gounod, born in France in June 1818, was one of the country's best composers of the late nineteenth century. Gounod studied at the Paris Conservatoire, and "after studies with Reicha, Halevy and Le Sueur, he won the Prix de Rome in 1838" (Sadie 1992, II:498) Gounod developed an interest in 16th century polyphonic music during the period of his Prix de Rome, and while in Rome, Gounod composed a mass and a Requiem. After his interest in religious music declined he began his career as an opera composer. He was virtually unknown on the Parisian musical scene, but thanks to the influence of mezzo soprano Pauline Viardot, who was favourably impressed by his musical abilities when she first met him in 1849, he received an Opera commission to set Sapho with Emile Augier as librettist. The contract stipulated that Viardot was to assume the title role and the work was to be a two-act curtain raiser. (Sadie 1992, II:498) Sapho launched Gounod's career as an opera composer, but Faust was his first great opera. Gounod died in 1893 in Paris after completing twelve operas.

Charles Francois Gounod From LoveToKnow 1911 CHARLES FRANCOIS GOUNOD (18181893), French composer, was born in Paris on the 17th of June 1818, the son of F. L. Gounod, a talented painter. He entered the Paris Conservatoire in 1836, studied under Reicha, Halevy and Lesueur, and won the "Grand Prix de Rome " in 1839. While residing in the Eternal City he devoted much of his time to the study of sacred music , notably to the works of Palestrina and Bach. In 1843 he went to Vienna , where a " requiem " of his composition was performed. On his return to Paris he tried in vain to find a publisher for some songs he had written in Rome. Having become organist to the chapel of the " Missions Etrangeres," he turned his thoughts and mind to religious music. At that time he even contemplated the idea of entering into holy orders. His thoughts were, however, turned to more mundane matters when, through the intervention of Madame Viardot, the celebrated singer, he received a commission to compose an opera on a text by Emile Augier for the Academie Nationale de Musique.

Charles Gounod Works Gounod’s opera "Faust", based on Goethe's drama that had a wide influence over artists of all kinds during the 19th century, is concerned principally with Faust's seduction of Marguerite, whose own redemption is secured, while Faust remains the prey of the devil Mephistopheles. Recital arias from Faust include the Mephistophelean Le veau d'or (The Golden Calf), the tenor Salut! demeure and Marguerite's Jewel Song Ah! je ris.
