Life
Fernand Ochsé came from a wealthy family. His older brother Julien Ochsé (1876–1936) was a poet. They lived in a large villa in Neuilly-sur-Seine . Julien Ochsé married the Belgian sculptor Louise Mayer in 1906 . After his death Fernand married the widow.
Fernand Ochsé studied at the Paris Conservatory , where he met Arthur Honegger , Maurice Ravel and Reynaldo Hahn , with whom he remained friends. Honegger dedicated the ballet music Le Dit des Jeux du Monde to him in 1918 and the operetta Les aventures du Roi Pausole in 1930 . He composed art songs.
Ochsé worked with his brother and organized readings for him. In their villa they had literary salons devoted to artistic fashions. He carried out orders for stage designs. In 1923 he was responsible for setting the premiere of Hahn's operetta Ciboulette . In 1928 he designed the costumes in the film La chute de la maison Usher . In 1934 he designed the cover for the edition of chansons by the composer Pierre Octave Ferroud . He was one of the illustrators for La Revue musicale magazine .
After the German conquest of France in 1940, Louise and Fernand Ochsé fled to the Italian-occupied zone. They were arrested in Cannes in July 1944 and detained in Nice and then in the Drancy assembly camp .
