Parry Dudley Buck John Knowles Paine Leo Sowerby b. Avignon, December 10, 1908 d. Paris, April 27, 1992 Messiaen was very religious and his music, both organ and other, reflects his extreme faith-bordering on mysticism. He used musical resources from many traditions, ranging from rhythms of the orient to early Christian Gregorian Chant to birdsong. His pieces achieve unity through his careful interdependence of melodies, rhythms, and harmonies. Messiaen served in the French army during World War II (1939). He was a prisoner for two years in a German prison camp in Silesca, where he composed his

Extractions: Olivier Messiaen combined profound musical knowledge, Roman Catholic mysticism, an interest in ornithology, and a wild musical imagination to produce some the greatest music of the last 60 years. This is not music for the unadventurous, but I have been able to interest the uninitiated with the ethereal beauty of Quartet for the End of Time - a piece composed and first performed in a German prison camp during World War II.

Extractions: Der Komponist Olivier Messiaen wurde am 10. Dezember 1908 in Avignon geboren. Seine Ausbildung erhielt er am Pariser Conservatoire, wo er bei Marcel Dupré und Paul Dukas studierte. Bereits seine frühen Werke (zum Beispiel 'Preludes' für Klavier von 1928) ließen aufhorchen. Messiaen lehrte am Pariser Conservatoire mit Unterbrechungen von 1942 bis 1978. Zusammen mit Jolivet, Baudrier und Daniel-Lesur gilt Messiaen als Gründer der 'Jeune France', eine Gruppe von Komponisten, die sich 1936 formierte. Seine Inspiration holte sich Messiaen aus den Werken Claude Debussys Igor Strawinskys und auch Alban Bergs . Außerdem war er sehr an Zahlenmystik, indischer Rhythmik, alt-griechischer Musik und gregorianischen Chorälen interessiert. Musikgeschichtlich nimmt er im zwanzigsten Jahrhundert eine ähnlich wichtige Stellung ein wie Schönberg , nicht zuletzt wegen seiner berühmten Schüler Pierre Boulez und Karlheinz Stockhausen . Olivier Messiaen starb am 28. April 1992 in Paris. WebGuide

Extractions: Born into an educated household, his mother a poet and father a noted translator of Shakespeare, Olivier Messiaen's early interest in the arts were nurtured and encouraged by his family. By the age of nine, Messiaen had already begun playing the piano and composing. The following year, his musical world changed when his harmony teacher Jehan de Gibon gave him a copy of Debussy's opera Pelléas et Mélisande, a moment and work that Messiaen described as being, "probably the most decisive influence of my life." At the age of eleven, Messiaen enrolled in the prestigious Paris Conservatory. He excelled in his scholastic studies, receiving five first prizes (piano accompaniment, organ, music history, composition, counterpoint, and composition). Messiaen's musical language was also greatly influence by his teachers, especially Paul Dukas, whose modal writing had a profound affect. An early example of this harmonic language is evident in Le banquet céleste, an organ work composed in 1928. The work's instrumentation and utilization of an extremely solo tempo reflect both a concern with temporal and religious matters that would appear throughout Messiaen's career.
