English : composed in the conservatory = french : sang froid in conservatoire ?

In the same way it could have said - 'Composed in Paris'

Sorry Mamya but I am definitely being dim!

Composed in French is 'composé'

Also, in French, a Conservatoire has a capital C

or am I splitting hair?

Thanks, Pigale. I'm with Mamya - the 'being composed' = 'sangfroid' in France, indicated by 'conservatoire'.

Got it !!!! It's just that particular meaning of 'composed' in English
that escaped me for a long while!

Thank you - I am happy now!!!

Pigale, glad you're satisfied now - it's annoying to have a clue, answer, niggling away at you!
