that's actually a quotation of Chopin's B-flat minor sonata in A minor.
This composer used a text created by the founder of the Rosicrucian church in the hymn "Salut drapeau!" In one piece, he quoted what he called a "well-known Mazurka" by Schubert that's actually a quotation of Chopin's B-flat minor sonata in A minor. David Toop was the first to perform another piece by this composer in its entirety. He used the Latour poem Damnation to preface one of his Three Sarabandes. This composer wrote a trio of pieces about a (*) Holothurian, an Edriophthalma, and a Podophthalma, as well as a piece whose only tempo marking is tres lent [tre lahn] or "slowly"; the latter piece, which repeats a phrase 840 times, is titled Vexations. This composer claimed Flaubert's Salammbo inspired him to write a series of pieces evoking a Greek athletic festival. For 10 points, name this French composer of Dessicated Embryos and Gymnopedies.
