Musical education owes to himself. He wrote several small operas, of which the Bergamian Twins were particularly successful (Les jumeaux de Bergame, 1782). In 1791, his opera Le médecin malgré lui was staged, in which Dezogier successfully applied the revolutionary song “ ia ira ” ( Things will work out [2] . Dezoger's tunes are easy, but the harmony shows a lack of musical education.
Desogier was friendly with Gluck and Saccini ; in memory of the latter wrote a requiem. Impressed by the capture of the Bastille, he composed a cantata called " Hierodrama ." He was buried in the Pere Lachaise cemetery (plot 22).
