Felice Pasquale Baciocchi (18 May 1762 – 27 April 1841)[1] was a French major general.

Around 5 May 1797, he married Elisa Maria Bonaparte, Napoleon's younger sister, in Marseilles.

Baciocchi was appointed secretary to the ambassador to the Spanish Royal Court in November 1800 and moved to Madrid, while his wife remained in France.

[citation needed] Baciocchi was an avid amateur violinist, and he studied with violin virtuoso Niccolò Paganini for ten years while residing in Lucca and Florence.

[3] When Napoleon's empire collapsed, he retired with Elisa to Trieste, then to Bologna after her death in 1820.
