2025-02-21/2025-02-21 - Claude-François Clicquot was born in Paris in 1762, son of the organ-builder François-Henri Clicquot (d. 1790) and Antoinette Poinsellier (d. 1796). He worked with his father on new organ construction. After his father's death, he mostly worked on restoring organs that had been damaged during the French Revolution. These included instruments at Saint-Eustache, Saint-Jacques-du-Haut-Pas and Saint-Merri. Claude-François Clicquot completed a treatise on organ-building, Théorie pratique de la facture d’orgues, that his father had started. The thesis was based on the organ that he and his father built for Poitiers Cathedral, which is still almost intact today. He died in Paris on 29 March 1801. Source: Wikipedia -Paul R. Marchesano
