George Rodwell
George Herbert Buonaparte Rodwell (1800–1852) was an English composer, musical director, and author.
==Life==
The brother of James Thomas Gooderham Rodwell (died 1825), playwright and lessee of London's Adelphi Theatre, was born in London, 15 November 1800. A pupil of Vincent Novello and Henry Rowley Bishop, he became in 1828 professor of harmony and composition at the Royal Academy of Music.
On the death of his brother James in 1825, Rodwell succeeded to the proprietorship of the Adelphi Theatre; but Frederick Henry Yates with Daniel Terry bought him out very shortly, at a price of £30,000.〔 Rodwell then mainly occupied himself with directing the music at the theatre, and in composition for the stage. His opera ''The Flying Dutchman'' was produced at the Adelphi in 1826, and ''The Cornish Miners'' at the English Opera House in 1827.〔
In 1836 Rodwell was appointed director of music at Covent Garden Theatre, where his farce ''Teddy the Tiler'', from the French ''Pierre ou le Couvreur'' (Nicolas Brazier and Pierre-Frédéric-Adolphe Carmouche), had been performed in 1830. The Covent Garden management tried to anticipate the repertory of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane; and Rodwell, though friendly with Alfred Bunn, the Drury Lane manager, sailed close to the wind in this regard. When Daniel Auber's opera ''The Bronze Horse'', was announced at Drury Lane, he brought out at Covent Garden an opera on the same theme, with music by himself.〔
Rodwell's efforts to establish a British national opera, launched through the Royal Society of Musicians, had no lasting result. For many years he lived at Brompton. He died, aged 52, at Upper Ebury Street, Pimlico, on 22 January 1852, and was buried in Brompton cemetery.〔
