Xavier Leroux
Leroux (1863-1919) was a French composer and teacher. He received his education at the Conservatoire de Paris, studying under Jules Massenet and Théodore Dubois. In 1885, he was awarded the Prix de Rome for his cantata Endymion. Leroux later became a harmony teacher at the Conservatoire de Paris starting from 1896.
Leroux’s compositional output encompassed various orchestral and choral works, songs, and piano pieces. However, he gained significant recognition as a representative of naturalistic French opera. His most notable work is the opera Le Chemineau, which received six stagings at the Opéra-Comique between 1907 and 1945.
