NTT: This one is deeply flummoxing — très flummoxant!

From the clue, my best guesses would have been Jacques Ibert and Henri Tomasi, but my recollection is that neither of them were from Brittany. I could maybe add André Messager (who I think was also not from Brittany.)

The thing is, the music sounds so contemporary, like something the Kronos Quartet would have commissioned. Henri Duparc died in the 1930s if I'm not mistaken, so perhaps this person was very young indeed and lived well into the latter portion of the 20th century.

This one is a big ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ from me but I'm looking forward to learning the answer!
