Talk:Maurice Duruflé

message: We still need to check up on Vierne - I think that Durufle did give the 1st perf.
of Vierne's 6th symphony (for organ?), but I need a bit more evidence. David Martland 20:37 Dec 7, 2002 (UTC)
I believe it is established (no source, sorry) that Duruflé completed Vierne's final concert when the organist died at the console.68.160.19.23 04:26, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

message: "The Requiem has some similarities with Fauré's, though it also shows the strong influence of Gregorian chant and Renaissance music. For example, the opening theme in Introit-Kyrie is borrowed from Duarte Lobo's Missa pro defunctis."  
This misses the point that the main melodic theme of every movement of the Requiem Op. 9 is closely modelled on the corresponding chant from the standard Gregorian 'Missa pro defunctis".  I don't know the Lobo.  Does the Durufle reference features that were not derived from the chant? 
Also, it would be of interest to have some specifics on its similarities with the Faure. 
BTW - I see your article has been copied without attribution on a number of sites.  Does this happen often with Wikipedia articles?

thread_title:  Requiem Op. 9, 

message: This article is an interesting inroduction to Durufle.  It would be good to see it taken further in a number of ways, not the least a discussion of the characteristics and sources of Durufle's musical style. For example: harmony; orchestration; the role of plainsong; education, belief and other influences.  I'm nowhere near a music library, so can't help with a first cut.  Are there any music students or academics out there who would like to attempt a summary, with references, at a level that's aimed at the educated layman? Countersubject 01:08, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Musical Style 

message: There is a contradictionon this page and the Durufle Requiem page.
This page clearly states that there are three versions:
* Version with Organ (1948)
* Version with Orchestra (1950)
* Version with small Orchestra (1961)
while the page on the Durufle Requiem page clearly says that there are the following three versions:
one for organ alone, one for organ with string orchestra, and one for organ and full orchestra.
I have a recording of the Requiem with full orchestra (but no organ).... so, which page is correct?

: No contradiction, both orchestral versions include organ parts. --FordPrefect42 14:38, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Is there a way to work in a mention of his recording of the Poulenc Concerto? Despite the rather, shall we say, questionable intonation, it is an incredibly exciting rendition. Did he make other recordings, either of his own music or of others? Should there be a discography? --Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 21:30, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sure.  If he has recorded then add a discography section. --Mperry 03:39, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
