French clarinettist, composer and teacher. He learn the basis of the
clarinet in Strasbourg with the music master of a military garrison. He
was part of a military music corps for a while and then moved to Paris
in 1790. Like his brother Frédéric Duvernoy, he was member of the
National Guard orchestra until 1795. Then he was first clarinet at the
Théâtre de Monsieur, at the Saint-Germain fair and at the Théâtre
Feydeau, a position he held until 1824. At the same time, he was
professor at the Conservatory of Music and Declamation in Paris
(1800-1802 and 1808-1816). In the Biographie Nouvelle des Contemporaries
published in 1822 we can read: "M. Charles Duvernoy is no less
distinguished on the clarinet than his brother on the horn, and we
admire his brilliant manner in the execution of the solos." He was the
father of composer Henri Duvernoy, the singer Charles-François Duvernoy
and the hornist Antoine François Frédéric Duvernoy.
