"Jean Hotteterre (i) [père]
(b La Couture, c1610; d ?Paris, c1692). Son of Loys de Haulteterre. He moved to Paris shortly after his marriage to Marguerite Delalande on 22 October 1628; about 1635 he established a woodwind instrument making workshop in the rue Neuve Saint-Louis. He was a member of the King's hautbois et musettes de Poitou, a post he acquired from Pierre Varin on 4 January 1651; the post passed to his son (3) Martin Hotteterre in 1659. Jean or one of his sons, (2) Jean Hotteterre (ii) and Martin, was probably the ‘Osteterre’cited in about 1656 by Michel de Marolles for his ravishing flageolet playing. In 1657 father and sons played in a performance of the ‘Concert champestre de l'Epoux’in Lully's L'Amour malade. In 1658 Jean père formed a woodwind chamber music association with his son Martin and with Jean Brunet, François Pignon and Michel Herbinot, members of the hautbois et musettes de Poitou; rehearsals were held at Jean's house each Saturday. An inventory of his workshop taken in 1654 on the marriage of his son Jean lists ‘flûtes’, flageolets, musettes and tools for their manufacture. According to Borjon de Scellery (Traité de la musette, 1672), Jean père was ‘a man unique for the construction of all sorts of instruments of wood, ivory and ebony, such as musettes, “flûtes” flageolets, haubois and cromornes; and even for the perfect tuning of these instruments’."
