CHARLES LOUIS AMBROSE THOMAS

5th August 1811 --- 12th February 1896

His full name Charles Louis Ambrose Thomas (born in 1811 at Metz France. Died 1896 in Paris), French composer best known
for his operas, particularly Mignon, written in a light, melodious style.

Thomas attended the Paris Conservatory, concluding his studies by winning the Prix de Rome in 1832 for his cantata Hermann
et Ketty. Upon his return from Rome in 1835 he launched himself on a career as an opera composer and began teaching at the
conservatory in 1856.

After a series  of pleasantly  melodious  works he produced his  masterpiece and one  of the most successful  operas  in history
Mignon (1866),  which by 1894  had received  more than 1,000  performances at the  Opera-Comique alone.  This and  his next
opera, Hamlet (1868), brought him international fame, and in 1871 he became director of the Paris Conservatory.
