The penultimate volume of this series concentrates on the liturgical aspect of Marcel Dupré’s music. For virtually the whole of his adult life Dupré’s career as a church musician was centred on the great Parisian church and organ of Saint-Sulpice, where he was Assistant Organist from 1906-33 and Titulaire from 1934 until his death in 1971. But in his early thirties he was also associated with the Cathedral of Notre-Dame. In the summer of 1916, at the height of the First World War, Dupré’s friend and mentor Louis Vierne was compelled to leave France to seek treatment in Switzerland for his ailing eyesight, and he asked Dupré to deputise for him at Notre-Dame for a few months.
