Guide de la méthode élémentaire et analytique de musique et de chant. Musique 2/2 - Wilhem 1781-1842 (Paris Chez l'auteur, 1821)
Louis Bocquillon, known as Wilhem or Bocquillon-Wilhem, was a French composer and teacher.
Wilhem is considered to be the restorer of popular choral singing in France; in fact, he reinstated choral singing in Paris primary schools, where it had disappeared with the French Revolution. He initiated the popular orphéon choral movement thanks to a mutual teaching method that bears his name.
