This composer’s five attempts to win the Prix (“pree”) de Rome caused a scandal which forced Théodore Dubois to retire. Inspired by Aloysius Bertrand’s prose poems, this composer included the movements “Ondine” (“on-DEEN”) and “Scarbo” in a piano suite intended to surpass the difficulty of Balakirev’s Islamey. Ida Rubinstein commissioned a piece by this composer, which uses the melody (read slowly) “high C (pause) B C D C B A C.” This composer of the suite Gaspar de la Nuit (“nwee”) wrote a repetitive, triplet-heavy ostinato for snare drums in a piece which insistently repeats its melody until it reaches a fortissimo finish.
