Guillaume Poitevin
Guillaume Poitevin (2 October 1646 – 26 January 1706) was a French serpent player, maître de chapelle and composer.
Biography
Born in Boulbon near Tarascon, Poitevin was trained musically in the choir school of Avignon and then entered the chapel of the Aix Cathedral. After a few years as a serpent player, he assumed the functions of maître de chapelle in 1667 for the rest of his life. He was also a teacher of composers including André Campra and Jean Gilles. We know only excerpts of his works today.
He died in Aix-en-Provence

gollark: In that they can frequently do the sort of thing a human could do in one shot without needing to do much conscious thought or use working memory, but fall down horribly on lots of multi-step things or particularly thinky stuff.
gollark: They're not replicating the actual implementation very much. They do seem to be replicating the rough functionality.
gollark: They also do not actually perfectly remember things (or "form new memories" at all after training) unless you glue some kind of external memory retrieval on.
gollark: They might have something like emotions internally (it would be hard to check) but there's not a strong reason for them to be humanlike given their very different tasks.
gollark: Not as capable, obviously, but the same sort of thing.
