Yvonne Desportes (* 18 July 1907 in Coburg; † 19 December 1993 in Paris) was a French composer.

Life

The daughter of the composer and conductor Emile Desportes (1877-1944) and the painter Bertha Froriep (1881-1950) was born during a trip of her parents to Coburg, she received her first piano lessons from her father. She then studied at the École Normale de Musique de Paris with Yvonne Lefébure, Alfred Cortot and Paul Dukas. From 1925 to 1932 she studied at the Paris Conservatoire with Noël Gallon and Jean Gallon, Maurice Emmanuel and Marcel Dupré.

In 1932 she won the Premier Grand Prix de Rome with the cantata Le Pardon. During the stay in Rome associated with the prize, she married the sculptor Ulysse Gemignani (1906-1973) in 1933, who was also a Rome Prize winner. From 1943 to 1978 she was a professor at the Paris Conservatoire, until 1959 for solfège, then for counterpoint and fugue.

Among Desportes’ more than 500 works are operas, electroacoustic and symphonic music (including two symphonies, 1958 and 1964), instrumental concertos (including two percussion concertos, 1957 and 1960, and a trumpet concerto), chamber music and vocal music, as well as many music didactic works. She was awarded the Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur.
