Menuet and Bouree by Robert de Visee

Robert de Visée's origin is unknown, although a Portuguese origin of his surname had been suggested. He was likely to have studied with Francesco Corbetta. He was first mentioned in 1680, and at about that time became a chamber musician to Louis XIV, in which capacity he often performed at court. He was appointed in 1709 as a singer in the royal chamber, and in 1719 he was named "Guitar Master of the King" (Maître de Guitare du Roi). Rousseau reported in a letter of 1688 that he was a respected musician at Versailles, and also played the viol.
