Marie Joséphine Claire Prestat (1862–1933) was a French organist, pianist, composer and teacher.
Marie Prestat began advanced musical studies at a young age at the Conservatoire de Paris.
[3] Prestat's work as a teacher was recognised in 1895 by the French State awarding her the Ordre des Palmes Académiques.
[3] From that time onwards her teaching career was spent largely at the Schola Cantorum in Paris where she taught the organ (1895-7) and piano (1901–22).
