Nicolas Racot de Grandval

Nicolas Racot de Grandval (1676 - 16 November 1753) was a French composer, harpsichordist and playwright. He was born and died in Paris and was also named „Le Père Grandval“.
Although a respectable musician, at one time organist at St Eustache, his interests ran more to comedy, both in written comic dramas, such as the "Broken bed pot" and in musical comedy such as frivolous parodies on Clérambault's cantatas. His sister Marie-Hortense married the actor Charles Botot Dangeville.
