A renowned and influential pedagogue, Baillot had numerous pupils, including Mazas, Sauzay, and Charles and Leopold Dancla. A prolific and talented composer, besides nine concertos and a symphonie concertante for two violins, he wrote 'airs' and 'themes varies', caprices and etudes, duos, trios, string quartets and a sonata for piano and violin. Although his compositions are almost entirely forgotten, L'art du violon (1834) still holds its place as a standard work. He took a prominent part with Viotti's other two greatest pupils, Rode and Kreutzer, in compiling and editing the Methode de violon and a similar work for the cello." (Paul David, Grove Online) .
