distinguished musicians in the most complete biography in any
language of Charles-Marie Widor. Widor: A Life beyond the Toccata
brings to light the life and work of one of France's most
distinguished musicians in the most complete biography in any
language of Charles-Marie Widor. He is considered one of the
greatestorganists of his time, a prolific composer in nearly every
genre, professor of organ and composition at the Paris
Conservatory, academician and administrator at the Institute of
France, journalist, conductor, music editor, scholar,
correspondent, inspired visionary, and man of deep culture. An
appendix constitutes the most complete listing ever compiled of
Widor's oeuvre. Each work is dated as accurately as possible and
includes the publisher, platenumber, dedicatee, and relevant
commentary. Another appendix lists Widor's complete published
writings, other than the scores of press reviews he penned over
several decades. Widor: A Life beyond the Toccata illuminates the
life and work of one of France's most distinguished yet neglected
musicians of the belle epoque. JOHN R. NEAR is Professor Emeritus
of Music, Principia College.
