Taught by Jean-Baptiste Senallié, he quickly became one of the foremost violinists of his generation (1689-1753). After working for the Prince of Condé, he entered the service of the King. He joined the court's prestigious string ensemble, the Vingt-quatre Violons du Roi, he also played with the opera orchestra, notably alongside Francœur and Rebel, and with the Concert Spirituel. His compositions include symphonic concert trios in the Italian style, which was very popular in Paris at the time. Aubert was one of the leading precursors of the violin concertante style in France, a generation before Leclair.
