Jacques
____________________
(
1819
?
____________________
)
was
a
German
composer
and
cellist
of
the
____________________
period
.
He
is
remembered
for
his
nearly
____________________
operettas
of
the
1850s
?
1870s
and
his
uncompleted
opera
The
Tales
of
____________________
.
At
the
age
of
14
,
he
was
accepted
as
a
student
at
the
____________________
Conservatory
.
In
____________________
,
Offenbach
produced
his
first
important
operetta
,
____________________
aux
enfers
(
"
____________________
in
the
Underworld
"
)
,
which
was
exceptionally
well
____________________
.
During
the
____________________
,
he
produced
at
least
____________________
full
-
length
operettas
,
included
La
belle
____________________
,
La
vie
parisienne
,
La
Grande
-
Duchesse
de
____________________
and
La
Périchole
.
In
his
last
years
he
strove
to
finish
The
Tales
of
____________________
,
but
died
before
the
____________________
of
the
opera
,
which
has
entered
the
standard
____________________
in
versions
completed
or
edited
by
other
____________________
.
By
his
own
reckoning
,
____________________
composed
more
than
____________________
operas
.
Both
the
number
and
the
noun
are
open
to
question
:
some
works
were
so
extensively
revised
that
he
evidently
counted
the
revised
versions
as
new
,
and
commentators
generally
refer
to
all
but
a
few
of
his
stage
works
as
____________________
,
rather
than
____________________
.
