a| Originally published in 1672 Paris by Robert & Ballard

a| Étienne Drouaux was a musician and composer active in Paris in the last third of the 17th century.

a| Drouaux is best known as the author of a method of plainsong which enjoyed a certain success, since about ten editions were published between 1672 and 1705. This method was part of a wave of publications of new methods which tended to give a somewhat secure basis to the practice of plainchant. But it appears that Drouaux was largely inspired by Jean Millet's method of 1666, keeping the most practical elements and eliminating the old authorities that encumbered it.

a| Drouaux' first name is really Étienne (or Estienne), not Henri Blaise, as Fétis or Ton thought
