Mlle Bocquet

Mlle Bocquet (either Anne or Marguerite) (early 17th century–after 1660) was a French lutenist and composer. She ran a Salon with a Mlle de Scudéry from 1653–1659. She was in contact with members and founders of the Académie française. Bocquet's compositions explore the chromatic possibilities of the lute, with preludes in every key. Manuscript F-Pn Vm.7 6214 [1] of the Bibliothèque nationale de France contains a number of her preludes. Her music is also in French, German, and English manuscripts of the second half of the 17th century.[2]

gollark: I don't actually have a car, but it seems like with the increasing amount of computers in them and requirements for mobile connectivity and such in them, they're moving away from this.
gollark: Generally, I think my things should do what I want and not enforce artificial lockouts on things, randomly break unrepairably, report data back to whoever, run unauditable proprietary software, or do weird stuff in the background.
gollark: Oh, and if I remember right all Teslas are constantly connected over the mobile network to Tesla and can refuse to work if you don't do software updates.
