Everything about Maurice Schlesinger totally explained
Moritz Adolf Schlesinger (
1798 in
Berlin -
1871 in
Baden-Baden), generally known during his French career as
Maurice Schlesinger, was a
German music editor. He is perhaps best remembered for inspiring the character of M. Arnoux in
Gustave Flaubert's novel
Sentimental Education.
He was the son of
Adolf Martin Schlesinger, founder of the music journal
Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung. Maurice moved to
Paris permanently in the 1820s where he founded a music publishing house closely linked to that of his father. In 1834 he founded a society with the stated object of publishing both classical and contemporary music at reasonable prices. He published works by
Mozart,
Haydn,
Weber,
Beethoven,
Johann Nepomuk Hummel,
Giacomo Meyerbeer and
Hector Berlioz. He employed
Richard Wagner, as an arranger and journalist, during the latter's first visit to Paris in 1840-41, and made the first introduction of Wagner to
Franz Liszt.
Schlesinger created the journal, which he later combined with the
Revue musicale of
François-Joseph Fétis. He eventually sold his portion of the journal in
1846 to a former employee named Louis Brandus.
