He died in 1809.
Another contemporary of Gretry was Gossec, a greater musician, though not so popular a composer.
He was born in Hainault about the year 1733, and, between the years 1766 and 1786, produced a number of successful operas, both for the Academie de Musique and the Comedie Italienne ; the princi- pal of which were Le Faux Lord, Les Pecheurs, Toinon et Toinette, Sabinus, and Thesee. All these are now forgotten ; and it is upon his ecclesi- astical music, which is of the highest order
..., that Gossec's permanent fame will rest.
This distinguished composer died in 1829, at the age of ninety-six. During his whole life he en- joyed high consideration both as a man and an artist. At the beginning of the French Revolution, he was made director of the band of the national guard, and composed the music of many of the patriotic songs and hymns of that period. When the Conservatoire de Musique was established in 1795, he was, jointly with Mehul and Cherubini, placed at the head of that great institution, in the management of which he took an active share until within a short time of his death.
