I first heard the music of this underated composer Loeillet in 1958 when i was 11 years old.My dad had bought one of those new fangled VHF Radios and he tuned in the Third Programme. The posh voice announced ""Largo in G Minor for Cello and Piano by Loeillet". I was immediately hooked as i had never heard this style of music before. In those days the only Baroque music that was ever performed was the Messiah!. I then went to my local Library and to my suprise the music was their but it turned out to be a Sonata in C minor for Recorder and Harpsicord!.The Cello version i had heard was a 1930,s arrangement. A few months later the then famous Flute player Edgar Hunt visited our school in Carlisle.He too had become interested in old music and was on a nationwide tour to try and popularize the Recorder in schools which of course is what eventually happened. He seemed suprised by my Loeillet knowledge during the question section at the end!

Authority on assertion of namesake as cousin

This article asserts that he had a cousin with the namesake. The authoritative allmusic.com identifies him as a cousin. Dogru144 16:30, 24 July 2006 (UTC) I do not understand why someone this week removed "composer" from note distinguishing him from his cousin. His cousin was a composer. The similarity of name and period-when-active erroneously leads people to confusion unless all of the possible pitfalls for confusion are noted.Dogru144 16:01, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This composer is different from Loeillet of London

This composer is different from his namesake relative of London. -per www.allmusic.com Dogru144 03:46, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I don't think I understand you. There are a number of musical Loeillets, including "(3) Jean Baptiste Loeillet (i) [‘John Loeillet of London’]" and "(5) Jean Baptiste Loeillet (ii) [‘Loeillet de Gant’]" as they are named by Grove. Is the article alright now? I don't think John Loeillet of London could have been named after his cousin Loeillet de Gant, since Loeillet of Ghent was born eight years after him. He may have changed his name to differentiate himself from his cousin though. Mak (talk) 08:23, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously he made that change after his cousin's fame. Many artistic professionals modify their names.Dogru144 16:05, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Discrepancy issue

There was one Jean-Baptiste Loeillet of London; and there was one with the identical name, distinguishing himself as active in Ghent, Belgium, or in that period, the Spanish Netherlands. Dogru144 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Month of death discrepancy

The French wikipedia site gives 19 July as his date of passing. This conflicts with the English site's date of 19 June. Dogru144 09:13 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Grove gives July 19, I'll change it. Mak (talk) 08:19, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Namesake, final word

Guys, allmusic is not authoritative. I'm looking at the Grove here, which is 20 or so volumes of information about music. Loeillet of London was the nephew of Pieter Loeillet. Loeillet of Gent was the son of Pieter Loeillet. Eijkhout 14:52, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

lütfen Türkçe diliyle de yazın bu bilgileri..... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.226.12.111 (talk) 16:21, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

editor is referring to Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. Dogru144 (talk) 18:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear

"Loeillet was born at Ghent, then in the Spanish Netherlands." And I thought only Jesus was born twice! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.117.237.69 (talk) 12:39, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Jesus was only born once - so that means you've failed at reading comprehension twice. 31.54.35.185 (talk) 13:01, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
