Brief profiles of oft-mentioned yet rarely heard 18C composers. Each profile features a mini-bio, a portrait or image (where possible), a brief description of the composer's compositional techniques, and an mp3 file, usually a piece by the composer that has not yet been recorded by any artist. Readers are humbly urged to send in corrections, comments, questions, etc.  -  JMS
