Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) was a French composer, organist and teacher. He was a sought-after teacher and inspector at provincial conservatories. He became a leading figure in Parisian social life and travelled widely. In 1896 he accepted a position as organist at the Temple of Madeleine and as teacher of composition at the Paris Conservatoire, where Maurice Ravel became his student. Gabriel Fauré composed until his death in 1924. His Requiem was played at his funeral in the church.
