Bernard Georges-Marie Gavoty (2 April 1908 – 24 October 1981) was a 20th-century French organist, musicologist, music critic and talk show host.
Biography
Bernard Gavoty was born in 1908 to Raymond Gavoty (a deputy of the Var department; 11 March 1866 - 20 January 1937 in Paris) and Geneviève Magimel (9 October 1875 in Paris - 17 October 1946 ibid.) in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.
After being a pupil of Louis Vierne, Bernard Gavoty entered the Conservatoire de Paris where his classmates for the organ included Denise Launay, Michel Boulnois, Antoine Reboulot, Félicien Wolff and Jean-Jacques Grunenwald.
He held a special place there among the students of Marcel Dupré. Renowned as a brilliant speaker and refined writer, he gave numerous lectures, especially for the Jeunesses musicales de France, and was a noted music critic for Le Figaro under the pseudonym Clarendon, a reference to the principal character of Beaumarchais's Eugénie.
In 1942, he was appointed the titular organist of the grand organ of the Église Saint-Louis des Invalides which he in 1955 had rebuilt by the Шаблон:Ill company in the neoclassical style. In the 1950s and 1960s, he frequently appeared on the single television channel to discuss classical music.[1][2] In 1976, he was elected a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, succeeding Julien Cain in the free members section.
He was also an agricultural engineer, having graduated from the Шаблон:Ill, and a wine grower in the côtes de Provence.[3][4][5]
Personal life
In 1944, Bernard Gavoty married Victoire Vignon (1916-2003) with whom he had two daughters: Marie-Ange (born 1945) and Cécile (born 1949).
Gavoty passed away in the autumn of 1981 in the 7th arrondissement of Paris.
