Jean Alexandre Ferdinand Poise (born June 3, 1828 in Nîmes , † May 13, 1892 in Paris ) was a French composer.

Poise was a student of Adolphe Adam at the Conservatoire de Paris . In 1852 he won the Second Grand Prix de Rome . In 1853 he made his debut as a composer with the Opéra comique Bonsoir, Voisine , which was performed over the next few years in Belgium, Holland and Germany and in a German translation in 1859 at the Carltheater in Vienna under the title Jungfer Nachbarin .

In contrast to Offenbach and Lecocq , Poise did not turn to operetta, but continued the tradition of his teacher Adam's opéra comique. Alphonse Daudet provided the libretto for two of his operas , otherwise his librettist Charles Monselet was responsible for the subject matter a. a. edited by Molière and Pierre Carlet de Marivaux .

Together with Louis Clapisson , François-Auguste Gevaert , and Auguste Bazille he composed the one-act operetta La Poularde de Caux , which was performed at the Théâtre du Palais-Royal in 1861 .
