In 1723, Blavet moved to Paris and entered the service of the Comte de Lévis, followed by the Comte de Carignan in 1726. Blavet performed at the Concert Spirituel and became the music supervisor for the Count of Clermont in 1732. In 1740, Blavet joined the Paris Opera orchestra and the personal ensemble of Louis XV. Instrumental works include Six sonatas for two flutes (1728) and the sonatas “L'Henriette” and “La Vibray” from the 1732 collection Six sonatas for flute and continuo. In 1752, Blavet composed Le Jaloux corrigé, the first French opéra-bouffe. Blavet also performed the premiere of Telemann’s Paris Quartets. Blavet died in Paris on October 28, 1768.
