One of his earliest positions was that of organist of the Parisian church des Quinze-Vingts, and in 1674 he was appointed titular organist of the Rouen Cathedral. Boyvin published two collections of organ works, in 1689 and in 1700, both featuring pieces spanning all church modes. The books contain 16 suites, no less than 120 individual pieces total. Jean-François Dandrieu was born in Paris into a family of artists and musicians. A gifted and precocious child, he gave his first public performances at the age of five, playing the harpsichord for King Louis XIV of France, and his court, and continued as a successful performer and compser throughout his life. Five volumes of Dandrieu’s music have come down to our time, much of it clearly influenced by the German contrapuntal school. André Raison was, during his lifetime, one of the most famous French organists and an important influence on French organ music. He published two collections of organ works, in 1688 and 1714. The first contains liturgical music intended for monasteries and a preface with information on contemporary performance practice. The second contains mostly variations on Christmas carols. Gaspard Corrette was born around 1671, probably in Rouen, where he was organist for the church of St-Herbland.It is believed that be moved to Paris in around 1720. The only surviving work by Corrette is an organ mass. The mass consists of 24 pieces in total. Nicolas Gigault was born into poverty. Little is known of his life other than that he quickly rose to fame and high reputation among fellow musicians. His surviving works include the earliest examples of noëls and a volume of works representative of the 1650–1675 style of the French organ school.
