Marcel Dupre (1886-1971)Organ Works, Volume 13Descended from a family of organists and musicians, MarcelDupre was born in Rouen in 1886. Taught by his father, he had his firstappointment as an organist at the age of twelve and in 1898 became a pupil ofAlexandre Guilmant, his teacher at the Paris Conservatoire, with Vierne andWidor, studying composition with the last and winning the Prix de Rome in 1914.Unfit for military service, he substituted for Vierne at Notre-Dame between1916 and 1922, and found time to study all Bach's music for the organ, in 1920playing in recital the complete organ works, thus establishing his reputation.An international career followed, with recitals throughout the world. This hecoupled with the position of professor of organ at the Conservatoire from 1926and employment as Widor's successor as organist at the Paris church of StSulpice. He served as director of the Conservatoire from 1954 to 1956 and diedin 1971. Equally gifted as a composer and as a performer, Dupre was a master oforgan improvisation, in particular on the fine instrument at St Sulpice.Zephyrs is a reconstruction by the American organist andwriter Rollin Smith of an improvisation by Marcel Dupre on a theme by LeopoldStokowski, taken from a recording. It represents an art of which Dupre was amaster, with brilliant improvisations in his recitals, often on themes offeredby members of the audience, and ending, on occasions, although not here, with askilfully constructed fugue.The Six Antiennes pour le Temps de No?\xbdl, Op. 48, (SixAntiphons for the Christmas Season), were written in 1952. The first, EcceDominus veniet, et omnes sancti ejus cum eo: et erit in die illa lux magna,alleluia (Lo, the Lord shall come, and all his saints with him: and there shallbe on that day great light, alleluia), for Vespers of the first Sunday ofAdvent, takes as its basis the plainsong of the antiphon, heard first in theupper part. The second, Omnipotens sermo tuus, Domine, a regalibus sedibusveniet, alleluia (Thy all-powerful word, Lord, shall come from the abodes ofkings, alleluia), is a Vespers antiphon for the fourth Sunday of Advent, againbased on the plainsong. Tecum principium, in die virtutis tuae in splendoribussanctorum, ex utero ante luciferum genui te (Thine is the princedom in the dayof thy virtue, amid the splendours of the saints, from the womb before dawn Iengendered thee) is an antiphon for Second Vespers on Christmas Day. Thecomposer varies slightly the inflection of the plainchant, the basis of atranquil meditation. Germinavit radix Jesse: orta est stella ex Jacob: Virgopeperit Salvatorem: te laudamus, Deus noster (The root of Jesse has had seed;the star of Jacob has arisen: the Virgin has brought forth the Saviour: wepraise thee, our God), an antiphon for Second Vespers on the Feast of theCircumcision, develops the chant in a livelier mood. It is followed by Stellaista sicut flamma coruscat, et Regem Regum Deum demonstrat: Magi eam videruntet magno Regi munera
