The thid part of this anthology is dedicated to a prolific composer. He wrote more than 450 opus and was published in France and in the States. He wrote for the organ, harmonium or piano and also three masses. Since 2 or 3 weeks, his life is known better thanks to the great work of my friend Jean-Charles Ablitzer who wrote a complete biography of Jacques-Louis Battmann, born in Massevaux and died in Dijon.
Battmann published 2 times in this anthology of religious music.
