About Adrien Barthe
- Adrien Barthe (born Great-Norbert Barthe, June 7, 1828 – August 13, 1898) was a French classical composer.
- Born in Bayonne, Barthe studied music under Fernand Le Borne at the Paris Conservatory.
- An early composition, Francesca de Rimini, was lauded by the Rome Institute, and subsequent cantatas Judith and Don Carlos were well received.
- Performances of Aubade in 1893 by conductor Paul Taffanel were popular with audiences to the extent that Taffanel published praise of Barthe - "your delightful work earned us our first success." Moving from classical composition to theatre work, Barthe's la Fiancée d'Abydos appeared on stage in Paris and Rome starring Jean-Vital Jammes, however flaws in the composition persuaded Barthe to retire shortly after December 1865, becoming a teacher.
- He died in Asnières, leaving behind several unpublished manuscripts.
