Chaminade married a music publisher from Marseilles, Louis-Mathieu Carbonel, in 1901, and on account of his advanced age the marriage was rumored to be one of convenience.
Ambroise Thomas, the celebrated French composer and writer, once said of Chaminade: "This is not a woman who composes, but a composer who is a woman." In 1913, she was awarded the Légion d'Honneur, a first for a female composer.
Chaminade was relegated to obscurity for the second half of the 20th Century, her piano pieces and songs mostly forgotten, though her Flute Concertino got a lot of playtime on some classical radio stations in the 1990s.

Chaminade gathered together a number of young men and women, many of whom he had known before and during the years of persecution and formed a "community" of mutual support and Christian outreach that attracted people from all sectors of society and parts of the city.
Chaminade's concept of the Sodality was to gather all Christians - men and women, young and old, lay and clerical - into a unique community of Christ's followers unafraid to be known as such, committed to living and sharing their faith, and dedicated to supporting one another in living the Gospel to the fullest.
At the same time that Chaminade was administering the Diocese of Bazas and inaugurating his work with the Sodality, he was also encouraging and assisting Marie Therese in her efforts to provide an environment where prostitutes desirous of changing their lives might find the support they needed.

Her opéra comique, entitled La Sévillane, which Chaminade herself accompanied in a private performance, ought to have opened the doors of the Opéra-Comique to its composer; although she presented it again publicly at the Salle Pleyel and then at the Salle Erard, the work was too short and never achieved any success.
Chaminade wrote most of her approximately 140 songs (of a total of 400 works, some 200 are pieces for the piano) between 1890 and 1910, having already demonstrated her capacity for tackling chamber and orchestral music.
The performance given by Chaminade in Paris in 1910, accompanied by that of the piano- roll recording for "pianola" which she had made beforehand, caused a sensation: it was a first.

Blessed William Joseph Chaminade's deep conviction of the conquering role of the Virgin Mary in these latter times was expressed often and energetically, and in a manner which bears striking resemblance to St. Louis de Monfort's Treatise on True Devotion to Mary.
Father Chaminade could not have been influenced by the prophetic teaching of St. Louis de Monfort's presaging the Age of Mary because the Treatise on True Devotion to Marv was not discovered until 1842.
Father Chaminade's inspiration regarding Mary's apostolic role in our time was from Our Lady of the Pillar at Saragossa, not from any predecessor or contemporary.
