Though Nicolas de Grigny (1671-1703) died when he was only thirty-two years old, the French composer Nicholas de Grigny left an indelible mark on the organ world. During his brief career he was organist of the Rheims cathedral and he wrote several organ pieces. His compositions reflect his liturgical inspiration.
