Auguste Mathieu Panseron

Auguste Mathieu Panseron (26 April 1796 – 29 July 1859) was a French composer and voice teacher.

Born in Paris, Panseron studied in Vienna with Antonio Salieri, having been accepted by the master thanks to a recommendation by Luigi Cherubini.

Early in his career, he wrote four works for the Opéra-Comique in Paris: La Grille du parc (1820), Les Deux cousines (1821), Le Mariage difficile (1823), and L'École de Rome (1829).

Panseron gained a lasting reputation with his pedagogical works, many of which continue to be published and used today.

These include his Méthode complète de vocalisation, in editions for all categories of voice; solfège exercises in editions for solo voice, vocal ensembles, piano, and violin; vocalises; and other specialized exercises.
