Jean Hotteterre (1677–1720) was a composer and musician of the Hotteterre family at the court of Louis XIV of France. He and his brothers Jacques-Martin and Nicolas made many enhancements to the oboe, creating an "indoor" version similar to the shawm. Jean worked at the family workshop on the rue de Harlay until his death. Jean and Michel Philidor created the oboe.

"La noce champêtre" (Country Wedding/ Pastoral Hymn) is a French Sonata and Trio (No. 6) ca. 1700 in 31 movements. This Air (Premier Aire - Loure) is movement VII in the suite.
Although originally written for chamber orchestra, I created this arrangement for Concert (Pedal) Harp.
