[extrait de:] Barry S. BROOK, Susan KAGAN : 'Ragué, Louis-Charles', Grove Music Online ed. L. Macy (Accessed 29 March 2004), http://www.grovemusic.com :
"Ragué, Louis-Charles
(b before 1760; d Moulins, after 1793). French composer and harp teacher. He appeared on the musical scene in Paris in 1783, when the press described him as an ‘amateur distinguished in more than one genre’(Mercure de France, October 1784, p.239). He had an active and highly successful career for a decade, after which he disappeared. […] His name appeared frequently in the Parisian press until December 1793, when his ballet Les muses was presented at the Opéra. According to Fétis, Ragué retired to the environs of Moulins in 1792 (1794, after the première of his ballet, seems a more likely date)."
