French Romantic composer Ernest Amédée Chausson (1855-1899) helped to bridge the gap between that period and twentieth century music. He died young as a result of injuries suffered in a cycling accident. Works include Poème for violin and orchestra and Poème de l'amour et de la mer for voice and orchestra.
