Biography

The French composer Hyacinthe Jadin was one of five musically-gifted sons of a bassoonist, Jean Jadin. A journal published his first composition, a rondo for piano, when he was nine – the work was premiered when he was thirteen, just as the French Revolution got underway. As an assistant rehearsal pianist (Rezizativbegleiter) at the Theatre Feydeau, Jadin composed the Marche du Siège de Lille in 1792. This commemorated the success of the citizens of Lille in facing down an Austrian siege that September. In 1794, Jadin created an overture for 13 wood instruments entitled "Hymn to the 21st of January," commemorating the one-year anniversary of the execution of King Louis XVI. Jadin, working in a proto-Romantic style, both rejected and extended the work of his classicist precursors. At the time of his death of tuberculosis, Jadin was impoverished, and was still owed several months‘ salary by the Paris conservatory.
