JONCIERES, VICTORIN (18391903) ,
French
  composer, was born in Paris on the 12th of
April
  1839. He first devoted his attention to
painting
 , but afterwards took up the serious study of music. He entered the Paris Conservatoire, but did not remain there
long
 , because he had espoused too warmly the cause of
Wagner
  against his professor. He composed the following operas: Sardanapale (1867), Le Dernier jour de Pampei (1869), Dimitri (1876), La Reine Berthe (1878), Le Chevalier
Jean
  (1885), Lancelot (1900). He also wrote incidental music to Hamlet, a symphony, and other works. Joncieres' admiration for
Wagner
  asserted itself rather in a musical than a dramatic sense. The
influence
  of the
German
  master's earlier
style
  can be traced in his operas. Joncieres, however, adhered to the recognized forms of the
French
  opera and did not model his works according to the later developments of the Wagnerian " music drama." He may indeed be said to have been at least as much influenced by Gouno.d as by Wagner. From 1871 he was musical critic for La Liberte'. He died on the 26th of October 1903.
