By 1767 he was organist at St Sauveur, Paris, and he was later organist of the Petits Augustins and of the royal chapel.

In a series of works composed between the ages of 27 and 32 for the opéra comique players and for the Concert Spirituel, he achieved particular recognition for the oratorio Samson."
