    "Anne Danican Philidor (b Paris, 11 April 1681; d Paris, 8 Oct 1728). Composer, instrumentalist and entrepreneur, son of André Danican Philidor l’aîné. He was named after his godfather, the Duke of Noailles. He was granted the survivance of his father's post in the Grands Hautbois in 1698 and joined the royal chapel in 1704 and the Petits Violons by 1712. He composed sacred and instrumental music, and by the age of 20 had at least five stage works produced. He also collaborated with his father in his duties as a royal music librarian. He was apparently well regarded at court: the king and two other members of the royal family signed his wedding contract in 1706. In 1725 he founded the Concert Spirituel to provide musical entertainment on days when, for religious considerations, the Académie Royale de Musique (the Opéra) was closed. The first concert was on 18 March in the Salle des Suisses of the Tuileries palace, and the series, which lasted until 1790, promoted instrumental and sacred vocal music. In December 1727 Philidor expanded his enterprise by initiating the Concerts Français, a series primarily of secular concerts featuring French cantatas. He resigned from the directorship of both series a few months before his death in 1728 and was replaced by J.-J. Mouret. The Concerts Français lasted only until 1730 on a regular basis, though annual concerts were given during the next three years. Philidor also directed concerts for the Duchess of Maine and was superintendent of music for the Prince of Conti."

C'est à lui que l'on doit à Paris, l'établissement du Concert Spirituel, dont il obtint le privilege en 1725, à condition qu'il dépendroit de l'Académie Royale de Musique."
