The Composers
Marc-Antoine Charpentier
Charpentier left his home in Paris in the 1660s to study with the composer Carissimi in Rome. He was well schooled in Italian compositional models of the time, which initially gave him something of an outsider status back in France. An association with the stage began with Molière's troupe, and he wrote incidental music for productions of works such as La Malade Imaginaire. By the early 1680s he was employed by the Dauphin as musical director and was later granted a pension by Louis XIV who, although frequently associated with Charpentier, never employed him. In 1698 he was made master of music at the Sainte-Chapelle, which led to him writing his greatest sacred works.
