Born in Paris, and was blind from birth; however, he had large hands which spanned an eleventh, allowing him to play the difficult organ works ; was a celebrated improviser, one of a long line of French Romantic virtuoso organists, and he wrote mostly for organ, including a Symphony (Op. 5) and Trois Pieces (Op. 7).
