LECLAIR, JEAN-MARIE

Jean-Marie Leclair, também conhecido como Jean-Marie Leclair, o Velho, (Lion, 10 de Maio, 1697 - Paris, 22 de Outubro, 1764) foi um compositor e violinista da era barroca. Ele é considerado o fundador da escola de violino francesa.

Leclair natural de Lion, foi estudar dança e violino, para Turim. Em 1716, casou com Marie-Rose Casthanie, uma dançarina, que morreu em 1728. Em 1730 Leclair casado pela segunda vez. Sua nova esposa era a gravadora, Louise Roussel, que preparou a impressão de todas as suas obras a partir Opus 2 em diante. Foi nomeado "ordinaire de la musique" por Luis XV em 1733.

Leclair foi esfaqueado em 1764. Apesar do homicídio permanecer um mistério, existe a possibilidade de que sua ex-mulher possa ter sido a instigadora, ainda que a mais forte suspeita recai sobre o seu sobrinho, Guillaume-François Vial.

Os seus irmãos Jean-Marie Leclair "the younger" (1703–1777), Pierre Leclair (1709-1784) e Jean-Benoît (1714-após 1759) foram também músicos.
