Marcel Dupre (1886-1971) spent much of his life at the Paris
Conservatoire: as student (1902-14); as Professor of organ (1926-54);
as Director (1954-56). He was also at St Sulpice: as assistant organist
(1906-34), then titulaire (1934-71). "Conditor alme siderum" is the
first of his "Sixteen Chorales" (1942, opus 38). "Reveillez-vous,
la voix des veillerus" is one of his "Seventy-nine Chorales" (1931,
opus 28) known in English as "Sleepers wake".
