Pierre Villette (1926–1998) was a French composer of choral and instrumental music. Villette was born into a musical family in 1926. He studied with Maurice Durufle before attending the Paris Conservatoire. Pierre Boulez was a fellow student but their careers followed very different paths. In 1957 Villette was appointed director of the Conservatoire in Besançon, the capital of the Franche-Comté region. He was dogged by ill health and had a lung removed while still in his twenties. <a href="http
