Auber

Japanese: オーベール
Auber
French composer. He was good at composing from an early age, and after studying business in London, he devoted himself to the study of music. He studied under Cherubini and achieved success with the Opéra-Comique (opera). In 1823, he teamed up with librettist A.E. Scribe (1791-1861), whose works became popular at the Opéra and the Opéra-Comique. He succeeded Cherubini as director of the Paris Conservatoire from 1842 to 1870. He composed many operas, including La Mute d'Portici (also known as Masaniello) (1828), which marked the beginning of French grand opera, and the Opéra-Comique Fra Diavolo (1830), but except for the latter, these are rarely performed today.
