Joseph Bodin de Boismortier (23 December 1689 -- 28 October 1755) was a French baroque composer of instrumental music,
cantatas, opéra-ballets, and vocal music. Boismortier was one of the first composers to have no patrons:
having obtained a royal license for engraving music in 1724, he made enormous sums of money by publishing his
music for sale to the public.
