IIRC Auric's best-known town is the theme from Moulin Rouge.  In an old
EMI tribute to the Groupe des Six (of which Auric was a member) there was
a suite of some sort called "Phedre" which I recall as very muscular music
including an Ondes Martenot in the orchestra.  Georges Tzipine conducted
and Jean Cocteau provided a spoken introduction to the album.  I don't know
if it's made it to CD.
