	Gustave Charpentier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gustave Charpentier (June 25, 1860 - February 18, 1956) was a French composer, best known for his opera Louise.
		He was born in Dieuze, the son of a baker, and after studying at the conservatoire in Lille entered the Paris Conservatoire in 1881.
		Charpentier returned to Paris, and continued to compose, including songs on texts by Charles Baudelaire and Voltaire.

	Gustave Charpentier (1860-1956)
		Gustave Charpentier (né en 1860), qui, nous l'avons dit, remporte en 1887 le Prix de Rome, revient de la Villa Médicis avec l'admirable partition des Impressions d'Italie (1890), qui connaît bientôt un triomphe mérité par sa couleur, son pittoresque mélodique, rythmique et orchestral, la sincérité et la fraîcheur de sa sensibilité.
		Charpentier s'est, depuis réfugié dans une hautaine misanthropie.
		Charpentier se le tint pour dit, et le soir même prit le train qui le ramenait au bercail.

		Charpentier was invited to perform the piece before the Paris Hôtel de Ville, where, in 1898, the crowning was staged to commemorate the historian of the revolution Jules Michelet and to serve as a "curtain raiser" for Bastille Day celebrations.
		Gérard de Lacaze-Duthiers saw Charpentier as "rediscovering the true French tradition which decidedly could not be accommodated to the Wagnerian yoke." Alfred Bruneau observed in the couronnement the "beauty of a virile music and the grace of a young woman." Bruneau was, like Charpentier, a former pupil of Jules Massenet.
		The eponymous protagonist of Charpentier's Louise, for example, was a young working-class seamstress, feisty, impulsive, and contrarian, who rejected parental constraints to throw herself into the cultural tumult of Montmartre, a free love relationship, and the freedoms of the city streets.

	Composer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		After Bohemian distractions in Paris, Gustave Charpentier eventually became a composition pupil of Massenet at the Conservatoire, winning the important Prix de Rome two years later.
		His chief activity as a composer took place before 1914 and he is remembered principally for his opera Louise.
		Charpentier wrote four operas, the first of them, the roman musical (musical novel) Louise, with its seamstress heroine and her Bohemian lover Julien, rejected by her family.

	Louise - Gustave Charpentier
		Louise, on the other hand, the only opera by Gustave Charpentier to survive in the repertory, is becoming a rarity onstage, largely perpetuated by French opera houses.
		Charpentier's lyrical paeans to Paris almost make the city a fifth principal here.
		He is also espousing his political convictions about freedom and self-determination and he throws in a bunch of even less fully drawn minor characters, none of whom serve as more than filler.

	Classics Today.com - Your Online Guide to Classical Music
		This 86-minute, fl-and-white, 1938 film of Gustave Charpentier's opera Louise is of interest for several reasons.
		Best known during the silent era (his Napoleon is an acknowledged masterpiece), Gance's way with shadow and light, his control of crowd scenes, the flow of his narrative, and the way in which he melds silent-movie (or "operatic") gestures with more modern and realistic movement are fascinating to watch.
		In addition, although there is only about 50 minutes of Charpentier's music here (there's much spoken dialogue--all of it, by the way, in un-subtitled French), the composer himself authorized the cuts, and so the story remains intact and the "sense" of Charpentier's opera remains.

		From the standard "O Mio Babbino Caro", a mainstay of many a soprano, to the likes of Massenet, Verdi, Charpentier, Weber, Goetz and composers from her homeland, Smetana and Dvorak, Popp delivers exquisite performances throughout.
		This CD is exceptional value for money and with such a variety of composers represented, there should be something to please all those who appreciate the soprano voice.

		For the nostalgic, there is Gustave Charpentier's Louise (Epic, 3 LPs), infrequently heard in the U.S. It is a sentimental apotheosis of the Gallic spirit, dating from a turn-of-the-century Paris that had never heard of existentialism.
		The work is not only good opera but good soap opera, telling the torturous romance of a working girl and her artist lover.
		Made famous overnight by Louise in 1900, Composer Charpentier spent the rest of his life vainly trying to imitate himself, died in 1956 without having produced another success.
