This composer caused a little ripple of interest on the Now Spinning thread a couple of days back.

I was intrigued to find a rather tasty earlier work (Ave Maria op.4 - 1921) on youtube this morning.

For those who missed it first time round, here's one of his best-known short orchestral pieces, Le cimetiere marin (op. 20 - 1934).
