Daniel Francois Esprit Auber was born on the January 29th 1782, a french composer, born in Caen in Normandy.

Auber father wanted him to join him in his print selling trade but he had a great love for music, and at a early
age was able to play at least several different instruments, he met Josef Alois Ladurner who became his first
teacher, by the time he reach the age of around 19 to 20 years of age he had to go to London to complete his
business training, but had to leave later because Britain was then as war with France.

Auber began to change the direction he was going, by 1811 he had produce some concertos and some had been
published and was praise for his composions it was around this time he decided is was time to leave the print
selling trade and concentrate on musical composition. Auber thought it was time to do regular study on the art
of composition, he became a pupil of Cherubini, who saw all the qualities of Auber as a composer.

In 1813 Auber first oprea Le sojour militaire was not received well which put a temporary halt to his composing
career. The death of his father in 1819 now was the time that he then turned back to what was his true vocation
composing, he produce his opera Le testament et les billets-doux (1819), was again not well received but this
time he persevered.

He then had a long series of brilliant successes in opera and french comic opera, he did around 50 operas.

In 1842, at the request of King Louis Philippe, he succeeded Cherubini as director of the Conservatoire.
