Scarce signed St Andrew's Halls, Glasgow, May 1922 program of the great French organist, pianist, composer, and pedagogue. 12.5 cms x 19 cms., four pages.

The program included works by Bach, Dupre, Franck, Widor, Tallis and others.



A student of Louis Diémer and Lazare Lévy (piano), Alexandre Guilmant and Louis Vierne (organ), and Charles-Marie Widor (composition), Dupré was later professor of organ performance and improvisation at the Paris Conservatoire (1926 - 1954) and teacher of two generations of well-known organists including Jehan Alain and Marie-Claire Alain, Pierre Cochereau, Jeanne Demessieux, Rolande Falcinelli, Jean Guillou, Jean Langlais, and Olivier Messiaen, to name only a few. In 1934, Dupré succeeded Charles-Marie Widor as titular organist at St. Sulpice in Paris, a post he held until his death in 1971. Winner of the Grand Prix de Rome in 1914 and regarded as a virtuoso of the highest order, Dupré contributed extensively to the development of organ technique, both through his own organ music and in his pedagogical works.
