According to Wikipedia:
Marie-Auguste Massacrié-Durand (* 18 July 1830 in Paris; † 31 May 1909) was a French publisher, organist and composer.
He studied at the Paris Conservatoire with François Benoist. He worked as an organist from 1849 in Saint-Ambroise, later in Ste-Geneviève, St-Roch and St-Vincent-de-Paul (1862-1874).
Among his better-known works is the Valse (Waltz) in E flat major, Opus 83.
Together with Louis Schoenewerk, Durand founded the publishing house Durand-Schoenewerk & Cie. in 1869, which became one of the most important publishers of French composers such as Jules Massenet, Claude Debussy and Camille Saint-Saëns. Durand began publishing the complete works of Maurice Ravel in 1905.
