Maurice Jaubert, French composer and conductor (born 1900)

Maurice Jaubert was a prolific French composer who scored some of the most important films of the early sound era in France, including Jean Vigo’s Zero for Conduct and L'Atalante, and René Clair’s Quatorze Juillet and Le Dernier Milliardaire. Many of his film scores were used as the basis for concert pieces. The song "À Paris, dans chaque faubourg" remains well known today. François Truffaut used his music posthumously in four of his films.
