PARIS. Feb. 20 (P). - Com
poser Gustave Charpentier,
whose opera Louise" became
one of the music public's favor
lite depictions of Paris. died
Saturday night. He was IS.
Mr.. Charpentier did almost
all of his composing before
World War I. In 1850. when he
was 80, he conducted a 50th an
niversary performance OF
Louise" at the Opera Comique
His greatest opera is the love
story of a young Partisan midi
nette"-a poor seamstreSs-and
her love affair with a poet. Mr.
lCharpentier said it was his own
story, that he lost his Louise
when he went to Rome to study
and never found her again.
| Active Social Worker
In later life Mr.. Charpentier
gave much time to social work,
particularly among the midi
Inettes.
Aside from Louise" he made
only one other essay into the
field of music drama but he
gained fame as the composer
and lyricist of la Vie du Poete, "
a "drama-symphony" divided
Into "acts" and scenes" for sole
voices, chorus and orchestra.
He also wrote several suites OF
lgreat beauty and numerous other
orchestral works.
The orchestra was. in fact
Mr.. Charpentier's best medium
of expression. He was a skilled
performer himself on many in
struments but he never learned
the piano and always had a
certain contempt for that in
strument.
Mr.. Charpentier was born June
Is, 1860, at Dieuze. a town in
Lorraine which eleven years
later became German territory
when the province was ceded
to the victors in the Franco
Prussian war. His father was a
baker and talented amateur mu-
sician, who played the violin,
flute and French horn. The eld-
Ter Charpentier worked at night
at his trade and devoted part Of
the day to teaching the elements
of music to his son.
