Maurice Duruflé (1902-1986) was a French composer, organist, and music teacher known for his distinctive voice in 20th-century French music. His solemn 'Requiem' (1947) reflects influences from Gabriel Fauré yet stands out for its unique style. Duruflé's education in Gregorian chant at Rouen Cathedral deeply influenced his creative work, leading to compositions that blend choral and organ music. Despite his talent, he published only a few works, struggling to compose later in life due to teaching commitments and a near-fatal car accident. His last piece, 'Pater Noster' (1977), adapted the Lord's Prayer into French.
