Gustave Vogt

At the same time as the Battle of Austerlitz, he met Joseph Haydn and Ludwig van Beethoven in Vienna.

After he became a member of the Orchestre de la Société des Concerts du Conservatoire in 1838, he played first oboe there until 1844.

In 1838, Vogt made a second trip to London and spent the entire season there, being sought after for his talent in all musical societies.

Back in Paris, he returned to his position as first oboe of the Société des Concerts du Conservatoire, where he was as much noticed by the beauty of the sound he derived from the instrument as by the quality of his performance.

He formed there all the French oboists who made a name for themselves at that time, particularly Henri Brod, Stanislas Verroust, Vinit, Barré, Lavigne, de La Barre and many others.
