Maurice Emmanuel (2 May 1862 – 14 December 1938) was a French composer of classical music. He studied with Léo Delibes, Théodore Dubois and Ernest Guiraud, among others, at the Paris Conservatoire. He was appointed professor of the history of music at the Conservatoire in 1909, and taught there until 1936. His students included Robert Casadesus, Yvonne Lefébure, Georges Migot, Jacques Chailley, Olivier Messiaen and Henri Dutilleux. Emmanuel's compositions include operas after Aeschylus, as well as symphonies, string quartets, and six sonatines for solo piano. He destroyed all but 30 works he composed.
