Claude Pascal (1921-2017) was a French composer. He was a musical prodigy and entered
the Paris conservatory already in 1931, a year before Henri Dutilleux enrolled there.
Both Pascal and Dutilleux were students in the harmony class of Jean Gallon and became
close friends over the time. When Claude Pascal won the Premier Premier Grand Prix de
Rome in 1945 it was Henri Dutilleux who visited him at the Villa Medici a year later. The
friendship of the two composers continued and Pascal and Dutilleux shared and discussed
thoughts and ideas throughout their lifetimes.

Shortly after Claude Pascal passed away in 2017 a large part of his musical estate was for
sale at a Parisian auction house where I bought it. The estate included also documents from
his time at the Paris conservatory. It seems Claude Pascal was a diligent, accurate person
because I found two large manuscript books with clean copies of compositional results of
his lessons. That includes not only his personal works but also results from his fellow
students. These notes by Claude Pascal are of enormous historical value because other
composers were not that diligent. So without these transcripts many student works were
lost nowadays.

Among the many transcripts penned down by Claude Pascal are six compositions that have
a reference to Henri Dutilleux - either he contributed the subject or the composition. With
interest I noticed that the Paul-Sacher-Stiftung also owns transcriptions by Claude Pascal
in their Dutilleux archive. I received the answer that the copies in the Paul-Sacher-Stiftung
are different to the ones in my archive. For that reason I decided to publish the
compositions for information purposes.

I would like to thank the Dutilleux family for their kind permission to publish these
compositions via my website.
