Английская Википедия:Adolphe Marty
Adolphe Alexandre Silvain Marty (29 September 1865 – 28 October 1942) was a French organist, improviser, composer and music educator who was blind for most of his life.
Early life and education
Born in Albi in the Tarn department in the south of France, Marty became blind at the age of two and a half years. He entered the Institut National des Jeunes Aveugles in Paris in 1874 and worked the organ with Louis Lebel (1831–1888).
From 1884 to 1886 he studied music composition with Ernest Guiraud and pipe organ with César Franck at the Conservatoire de Paris, winning the first prize for organ in 1886, the first blind person to do so.
Career
In 1888 Marty succeeded Louis Lebel as organ teacher at the Institut National des Jeunes Aveugles, where he taught until 1930. His students included Louis Vierne, Augustin Barié, Paul Allix, André Marchal, Jean Langlais and Gaston Litaize. Léonce de Saint-Martin also worked with him privately.
Marty served as organist of Saint-Paul d'Orléans church from 1887 to 1888. In 1891 he succeed Albert Renaud as organist of Saint-François-Xavier church in Paris, a position he held until 1941.
He was closely linked to the organ builder Puget, inaugurating a number of their instruments, including the organ of Albi Cathedral on 20 November 1904.
Marty died in Valence-d'Albigeois in the Tarn department on 28 October 1942.
