Synopsis

French organist, composer, teacher, editor

  • 1886 born in Rouen, France
  • 1926-1954 professor of organ performance and improvisation at Paris Conservatory
  • 1934-1971 titular organist at Sainte-Sulpice in Paris
  • 1971 died in Meudon, France

Dupré was born in 1886 to a family of musicians. He studied at the Paris Conservatoire and took first prize in three contests there – fugue, organ, and composition. He was the organist at St Sulpice from 1934 until his death in 1971, toured, and taught extensively in Europe and America. Many of Dupré’s own compositions have overt pedagogical purposes. For example, both the Tombeau de Titelouze and the 79 Chorales use chorale and chant tunes found in the works of other composers (Titelouze and JS Bach), and are meant to be introductions to that music.

For details, see the Wikipedia article on Marcel Dupré.
