Philippe-François Véras
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Philippe-François Véras was a French composer, organist, and harpsichordist active in Lille about 1740.
The only facts that are known about him are that he played the organ at Saint-Maurice church in Lille and that he published a small collection of harpsichord works in 1740. The pieces are organized in "Ordres" (a free-form suite of descriptive compositions), as are those of François Couperin before him, and they are influenced by the Italian style.
