Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis (1805) (case only) Chapelle de la Sorbonne (1825)
The
founder
of
the
Dallery-dynasty
is
Charles Dallery
(1702-1779).
His
nephew
and
pupil
Pierre
Dallery
(1735-1812)
became
the
associate
of
François-Henri
Clicquot
during
1767-1778.
He
participated
in
the
reconstruction
of
the
organ
of
Saint
Laurent
and
the
construction
of
the
organs
of
St-Nicolas-des-Champs
(1773),
Saint-
Merry
(1778)
and
Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois
(1771),
before
creating
his
own
company.
He
rebuilt
the
organs
of
Saint-Marcel,
Saint-
Denis-de-la-Chapelle,
Saint-Roch
and
Saint-Louis-des-Jésuites
and
Notre-Dame-de-Bonne-Nouvelle.
After
the
Revolution,
organ
building
restarted
painfully
and
his
activities
consisted
mainly
of
moving,
raising
and
reinstalling

in
the
Paris

Germain-l'Auxerrois,
Saint-Eustache,
Notre-Dame
de
Bonne-
Nouvelle,
Saint-Merry,

d'Aquin,
Saint-Roch,
Saint-
Jacques-du-Haut-Pas
and
Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis.
Works
in
1807
at
Saint-Séverin
are
considered
to
be
the
last
of
Pierre
Dallery's
career.
His
son
Pierre-François
(1764-1833,
photo)
became
one
of
François-Henri’s
harmonists
and
continued
the
activities
of
François-Henri’s
son
Claude
François
Clicquot
(1762-1800)
after
his
death,
as
well
as
those
of
his
father,
who
retired
in
1807.
He
mainly
overhauled
organs:
Notre-Dame,
Saint-Eustache,
Saint-Roch,
N.D.
de
Bonne-Nouvelle,
Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin,
Saint-Jacques-du-Haut-
Pas,

Saint-Paul-Saint-
Louis,
Saint-Gervais,
Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois,
Saint-Roch,
Saint-
Séverin,
Saint-Louis-en-l'île.
In
1809,
he
restored
the
organ
of
the
Saint
Phiilppe
du
Roule.
It
was
in
this
church
that
he
married
in
1832.
His
son
Louis-Paul
Dallery
(1797-1875)
carried
out
numerous
restorations
and
built
in
1805
a
new
organ
for
Saint-Paul-Saint-
Louis
(only
the
buffet
still
exists,
modified)
and
in
1825
a
new
organ
for
the
Chapel
of
the
Sorbonne,
which
is
one
of
the
few
new
organs
in
that
era
in
Paris,
that
has
been
conserved
in
its
original
state
(although it is silent for years).
Interventions
in
Paris:
Notre-Dame,
Notre-Dame
de
Bonne
Nouvelle,
Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois,
Saint-Gervais,
Saint-Merry,
Saint-Nicolas-des-Champs,
Saint-Roch,
Saint-Séverin,
Saint-Thomas-
d'Aquin,
Saint-Philippe-du-Roule
and
Saint-Etienne-du-Mont.
His
last
work
was
the
restoration
of
the
organ
of
Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin
(1842-1846).
Louis-Paul Dallery was the last representative of the classical French
organ style and could not keep up with the innovations as introduced
by Cavaillé-Coll.
