Jean-Philippe Rameaus early years are undocumented (he didnt even tell his wife anything about his boyhood). He was born on 25 September 1683 in Dijon, and baptised the same day. Known most for his very popular operas, he was also one of the greatest organists/harpsichordists in France, and his theoretical writings continued to influence musical thinkers over two centuries later. He was expected to become a lawyer but disappointed his parents by becoming one of the most prominent composers of his time.
