Sonates La Françoise Et La Sultane - 2e Et 9e Concerts Royaux ‎(LP, Mono).

François Couperin was known as "Couperin le Grand" (Couperin the Great) to distinguish him from the other members of the musically talented Couperin family. Couperin was born in Paris. He was taught by his father, Charles Couperin, who died when François was 10, and by Jacques Thomelin. In 1685 he became the organist at the church of Saint-Gervais, Paris, a post he inherited from his father and that he would pass on to his cousin, Nicolas Couperin. Other members of the family would hold the same position in later years. In 1717 Couperin became court organist and composer, with the title ordinaire de la musique de la chambre du Roi. With his colleagues, Couperin gave a weekly concert, typically on Sunday. Many of these concerts were in the form of suites for violin, viol, oboe, bassoon and harpsichord, on which he was a virtuoso player. Couperin died in Paris in 1733.

François Couperin the Great Born in 1668, François Couperin was the only son of Charles Couperin, the harpsichordist and organist at the old Parisian Church of Jordi Savall. sonata, La Sultane, which 36 years later would give rise to the collection Les Nations, with its different sonades, as he liked to call them, thus emphasizing his wish to naturalise into French the source of his inspiration from the other side of the Alps. La Pucelle became La Françoise; La Visionnaire, L’Espagnole; and L’Astrée, La Piémontaise. After the Third Book of Harpsichord Piece and the Concerts Royaux, written seven or eight years earlier, from 1714 to 1725, came Les Goûts Réunis and Les Apothéoses and finally, in 1726, Les Nations, which consisted partly of sonatas composed more than thirty years earlier and partly of recently composed suites.
