Composer of the Week

Emmanuel Chabrier (1841-1894)

Part One

The French composer Emmanuel Chabrier holds a unique position in musical history. His ground-breaking harmonies were cited as formative influences on later composers such as Ravel, Debussy and Poulenc. Although he was better educated than most amateurs, Chabrier was a largely self-taught musician and spent the first 18 years of his working life as a civil servant before switching to a career composing full time.
