Pierre Beauchamp
French choreographer, dancer, and composer (1631-1705)
Not to be confused with Pierre-François Godard de Beauchamps (1689–1761), French playwright and theatre historian.
Pierre Beauchamp or Beauchamps (French pronunciation:[pjɛʁboʃɑ̃]; 30 October 1631 – February 1705) was a French choreographer, dancer and composer, and the probable inventor of Beauchamp–Feuillet notation.
His grand-father was called Christophe (a musician) and his father, a violinist of the king's chamber, was simply called Louis. Following a custom of the time, Pierre Beauchamp was named Pierre after his godfather Pierre Vacherot, tailor of the queen's pages and a relative of the Beauchamps family.[1]
Biography
Beauchamp was born at Versailles (Yvelines), into a family of French "dance masters" (maîtres de danse).
He débuted at the court of Louis XIV at age 12, in 1648, in the Ballet du dérèglement des passions. He was made director of the Académie Royale
