The French composer Charles Dieupart travelled to London around 1700, and in 1701 he published six harpsichord suites.
Dieupart simultaneously published an edition of these suites in a version for recorder (or flute), violin and continuo, including precise instructions as to the particular type of recorder on which the suites should be played.
Jacques-Martin Hotteterre was known as "Le Romain", a sobriquet that may be attributable to a visit to Rome. Hotteterre's Suitte was written in the heyday of French mannerism, a stylistic trend characterised by its extreme ornamentation.
