Benoit Mozin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Benoit François Mozin called le jeune (the younger) (21 March 1769 – 1 December 1857) was a French composer.
Born in Paris, Mozin[1] was first a pupil of François-Joseph Gossec, and then became a professor at the Conservatoire de Paris (until 1802), where Victor Dourlen was among his pupils. He later married the daughter of Louis Joseph Guichard,[2] singing teacher, in his third marriage.
They had two children: the eldest, the marine painter Charles Mozin, discoverer of Trouville-sur-Mer, and his brother, the composer Théodore Mozin, second Grand Prix de Rome in musical composition in 1841 (a pupil of Henri-Montan Berton and Fromental Halévy).
Mozin was a member of the "Société académique des enfants d'Apollon"[3] and of the Société du Caveau.
He left about 60 scores for the piano including Souvenir de Trouville, Op. 19, a title revived by his son Theodore (Quadrille, Op. 22).
After he died in 1857 in Sèvres, Mozin was buried at the cimetière du Père-Lachaise (8th division).[4]
