He played at the Conservatoire concerts, studied vocal music and its practical instruction under Bodogni, and with him established in 1842 an Académie de Chant, in imitation of the one in Berlin. Their project was not successful, as the Prince de la Moskowa was then forming his Société de Concerts. In 1844 Panofka went to London, and in 1847 was engaged by Lumley as assistant at Her Majesty's Theatre at the time of Jenny Lind's visit. The Revolution of 1848 obliging him to remain in London, he became widely known as a teacher of singing, but returned to Paris in 1852, and settled at Florence in 1866.

Vocal composer, professor of singing, and writer on music; the son of a professor of music who scored many of Grétry's operas, he entered the Conservatoire in 1804, became pupil of Gossec in counterpoint, of Levasseur on the violoncello, and of Bertini in harmony, winning prizes in these studies. He won, also, in 1813 the grand prix de Rome for his cantata Herminie. He went to Italy, took lessons in counterpoint from Mattei in Bologna, lived in Naples and Rome several years, studying under the best masters, went to Germany, and was pupil of Salieri in Vienna, and of Winter in Munich. In 1817 he became honorary Kapellmeister to Prince Eszterházy at Eisenstadt. After visiting Prussia he returned in 1818 to Paris, where he taught singing and became accompanist at the Opéra Comique, then in 1826 professeur de solfège and in 1826 professeur de chant at the Conservatoire.
