About Francois Campion
François Campion (b. Rouen, c. 1686; d. Paris, 1748) was a French composer, theorist and performer on the theorbo and guitar who published in 1716 his thoroughbass manual, Traité d'accompagnement et de composition selon la règle des l'octaves de musique. He took both guitar and lute at the Academie Royale de Musique in Paris from 1703-1719, and visited England in 1731 or 1732. He was a pupil of the Italian Baroque guitar virtuoso Francesco Corbeita, and may have been a descendent of the English poet and composer, Thomas Campion.
