French composer and conductor. He studied under Ravignac, Franck, and Massenet at the Paris Conservatory. He won the Prix de Rome in 1882. He succeeded Franck as organist at the Church of Saint-Clotilde from 1890 to 1898, and from 1910 to 1934 he was the conductor of the Concerts Colonne, where he actively introduced the works of his contemporary composers. His compositions span a wide range of genres and are numerous, but they show his skillful assimilation of the various trends in French music of the time through his transparent orchestration, simple writing, lightness, and superb sense of balance. His major works include the opera "The Trickster's Daughter" (1901) and the oratorio "The Children's Crusade" (1902).

フランスの作曲家、指揮者。パリ音楽院でラビニャック、フランク、マスネらに師事。1882年ローマ大賞獲得。90~98年フランクの後を継いで聖クロティルド教会のオルガン奏者を務め、1910~34年コンセール・コロンヌの指揮者として同時代の作曲家の作品を積極的に紹介した。作品は広いジャンルにわたり、数も多いが、そこには透明な管弦楽法と簡潔な書法、軽快さとみごとなバランス感覚とによって、当時のフランス音楽の種々の傾向を巧みに消化しているのがみられる。主要作品にオペラ『ぺてん師の娘』(1901)、オラトリオ『少年十字軍』(1902)など。 [寺田由美子] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
