Jean-Philippe Rameau
1683 – 1764
Jean-Philippe Rameau's three published books of harpsichord pieces are the high point of the French Baroque keyboard repertoire alongside Couperin — bolder in harmony, more virtuosic in writing, and studded with character pieces of extraordinary specificity.
Pieces such as Les cyclopes, La poule, and L'enharmonique remain regular concert items on both harpsichord and modern piano.
