Dupré, Marcel. (1886 - 1971) & Evans, Edward R. G. (1881 - 1957). Large Autograph and Inscription. Large signed inscription on an album page dated 1922. In very fine condition, from an album compiled by Julia Wilmotte Henshaw (1869 - 1937), English-Canadian botanist and journalist. 25 x 33 cm. The verso of the page features a bold 1914 autograph from Edward R. G. Evans, the British naval officer and Antarctic explorer who served as second-in-command on Robert Falcon Scott's ill-fated expedition to the South Pole in 1910–1913 and as captain of the expedition ship Terra Nova.



A surprisingly uncommon autograph of the great French organist, pianist, composer, and pedagogue. 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.
