Jean-Paul-\u00c9gide Martini (born 31 August 1741) was a composer of classical music.  Although, known as a French composer he was actually born in Bavaria, Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes he was known as Martini Il Tedesco or Giovanni Martini. This is not to be confused with Giovanni Battista Martini<\/a> (especially when referring to Plaisir d\u2019Armour).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
