BORDES, CHARLES. - Musician, b. at Vouvray-sur-Loire on 12 May 1863, d. at Toulon on 8 Nov. 1909. A pupil of César Franck, he was choirmaster at St-Gervais in Paris. On a ministerial assignment he studied Basque folk songs; following the success of some of his performances of early music, he founded the Association des Chanteurs de St-Gervais (1892) and then, together with Vincent d'Indy, the Schola cantorum (1894), which was to assume such great importance in French musical education and culture. He edited the Anthologie des maîtres religieux primitifs and the journal Tribune de St-Gervais; he wrote Du sort de la musique religieuse en France (1906) and much music for orchestra.
