{{Short description|French composer (1784β1853)}} {{Use British English|date=May 2011}} {{Use dmy dates|date=June 2020}} [[File:George Onslow.jpg|thumb|300px|George Onslow]] '''AndrΓ© George(s) Louis Onslow''' (27 July 1784 β 3 October 1853) was a French composer of English descent. His wealth, position and personal tastes allowed him to pursue a path unfamiliar to most of his French contemporaries, more similar to that of his contemporary German [[Romanticism|romantic]] composers; his music also had a strong following in Germany and in England. His principal output was chamber music, but he also wrote four [[symphony|symphonies]] and four [[opera]]s. Onslow was esteemed by critics of his time, but his reputation declined swiftly after his death. It has only been revived in recent years.
