The Life & Music of Maurice Durufle

Presented by Jesse Glaude, Tri-Parish Director of Music

Join our Director of Music for an exploration of the choral and organ works of Maurice Durufle (1902-1986), the French organist & composer best remembered for his sublime, much-loved Requiem, Op. 9.  We will listen to various recordings of his works, discuss the musical and liturgical climate of his time, learn of his life, and come to a deeper understanding of one of the 20th century's most influential sacred musicians.
