The life and work of Léon Boëllmann is now almost forgotten, save for his Suite Gothique, a mainstay of organ recital programs the world over. Léon Boëllmann: Une vie | A life offers a near-contemporary account of his full and varied life, written by journalist Paul Locard. Coupled with a parallel English translation, this volume is an indispensable guide for those wishing to acquaint themselves with a composer who, had he not died so tragically young, would doubtless would have gone on to even greater heights.

A list of works, collated by Daniel Mitterdorfer, is provided as an appendix.
