Born: 25th December 1745, Baillif, Guadeloupe
Died: 10th June 1799, Paris, France
Nationality: French
Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-George(s) was a French violinist, conductor, composer and soldier of African descent. Moreover, he demonstrated excellence as a fencer, an athlete, and an accomplished dancer. His historical significance lies partly in his distinctive background as a biracial free man of color. Bologne was the first classical composer of African descent to attain widespread acclaim in European music. He composed an array of violin concertos, string quartets, sinfonia concertantes, violin duets, sonatas, two symphonies, and an assortment of stage works, notably opéra comique.
