Éditions Maurice Senart was an important French music publisher founded by Maurice Senart (29 January 1878 in Paris - 23 May 1962 Id.) operating in Paris from 1908 to 1941.
Founded in partnership with B. Roudanez, Senart ran the firm alone from 1912 to 1920, when Albert Neuburger came on board. The firm was renamed Société Anonyme des Editions Maurice Senart. The firm's catalog was sold to Editions Salabert in 1941, which continued to issue its holdings under the series ''Collection Maurice Senart.''
The firm created a large catalog of over 5000 works by 1925. Early editions were of works by composer Vincent d'Indy and the Schola Cantorum group of organ composers. The firm was important in the publication of works by many modernist composers in the 1920s including
