Vandenbroeck was probably of Dutch origin. He received his education (worked about 1770-1780) at the horn virtuoso Spandau in The Hague, as well as in theory (Fuchs, Kpm. the Prince of Orange) and composition. (J. Schmitt). In 1781 he was the Mitgl Orch at the Théâtre français in Maastricht, 1783, he must have gone to Paris, because in January of 1784, he blew a horn in the Concert Spirituel concert. The editor of the Mercure de France, considered him not mature enough to play in front of a Parisian public. 1788, however, he became a successful performer on horn in the Concert de la Loge Olympique.
