 | | Louis Couperin (1626-1661) was born in Chaumes and was the first of the many Couperins to become organist at the church of St. Gervais in Paris. |
| | His nephew, François Couperin (1668-1733), often known as « Le Grand », is especially remembered for his keyboard pieces and for his somewhat ambiguous and obscure, theoretical work L’art de toucher le clavecin. |
| | François Couperin’s chamber and church music is also very important, well-known examples being his two organ masses and the four volumes for the harpsichord. |
