More information

Koechlin was born in Paris, and was the youngest child of a large family.

His father died when he was 14. Though he was early interested in music his family wanted him to become an engineer. He entered the École Polytechnique in 1887 but the following year was diagnosed with tuberculosis and had to spend six months recuperating in Algeria. ...   Koechlin was born in Paris, and was the youngest child of a large family.
