Victor-Eugene McCarty (also Macarty, McCarthy or Macarthy, born between 1817 and 1823), a Louisiana Creole, was one of the first of several prominent free black composers in New Orleans, best-known for publishing Fleurs de salon: 2 Favorite Polkas in 1854. He had earlier in the 1840s become among the first black men to study music abroad, at the Paris Conservatory. McCarty did not publish as widely as many of his fellow Creole composers of the era, but he was well-known for performing and organizing other musicians, and playing a role in Reconstruction-era politics.
