- Charles Racquet (Parijs, circa 1598; Parijs - 1 januari 1664) was een Franse componist en organist. Racquet gold als een uitstekende organist en componist. Hij schiep waarschijnlijk een groot aantal werken voor het orgel, waarvan twaalf psalmverzen en een fantasie zijn behouden. Er zijn aanwijzingen dat sommige stukjes Nederlandse carillonmuziek uit het begin van de 17e eeuw teruggaan op de composities van Racquet, al is dat niet zeker. (nl)

- Charles Racquet /ʃaʁl ʁa'kɛ/ (1597 – 1664) è stato un organista e compositore francese, noto per le sue monumentali Fantaisies per organo. Nacque da una grande famiglia di organisti parigini e lui stesso divenne organista della Cattedrale di Notre-Dame di Parigi in giovane età, nel 1618. Mantenne il posto quasi sino alla morte, quando fu sostituito da un altro membro della famiglia Racquet. Fu anche musico di Maria de' Medici, posto occupato dal padre Balthazar in passato e di Anna d’Austria. Racquet era assai stimato dai suoi contemporanei: tra i suoi allievi spiccarono il celebre liutista (che scrisse anche un tombeau alla morte del maestro), il gesuita Marin Mersenne fu suo intimo amico e persino lo scrittore del XVIII secolo definí Racquet "il miglior organista del suo tempo".

Provenia d'una gran família d'organistes parisencs i ell mateix va ser nomenat organista de Notre Dame de Paris a una edat primerenca, el 1618. Va ocupar el càrrec fins poc abans de la seva mort i el va succeir un altre membre de la família Racquet. També va exercir de músic a Marie de Médicis (lloc que el seu pare Baltasar va ocupar anteriorment) i a Anne d'Autriche, la reina mare. Raquet va ser molt ben vist pels seus contemporanis: els seus pupil·les van incloure el famós llaütista (que va escriure un tombeau a la mort del seu mestre), jesuïta estudiós Marin Mersenneera un amic íntim seu. Al segle xviii, l'escriptor Jean-Benjamin La Borde va nomenar Racquet "el millor organista del seu temps". De la música de Racquet només sobreviuen Fantaisie per un sol orgue i Douze versets de psaume en duo sur les douze modes (12 duos sobre versos de salm), a Traité de l'harmonie universelle (1636) de Mersenne. La fantasia, escrita a petició de Mersenne de "mostrar què es podia fer a l'orgue", és una de les peces més famoses de l'escola d'orgue francesa. S'inspira en la música holandesa, en particular la de Sweelinck: es desenvolupa un tema únic a través de diverses seccions, la majoria imitadores. El disseny és el següent:
* Secció 1: contrapunt imitatiu tradicional amb diversos contraassumptes
* Secció 2: contrapunt imitatiu en una versió ornamentada del tema, amb contrapunts més ràpids
* Secció 3: tema en augment, indicat un cop a cada veu
* Secció 4: un bicinium duplici contrapuncto, una secció de dues veus en què el subjecte en la seva forma original es combina amb figures de setzena en l'altra veu.
* Secció 5: una tocata sobre un punt de pedal Fantaisie de Racquet és una peça única a tot el repertori de teclats francesos; res com aquest no es va tornar a escriure a França. (ca)

In the 18th century writer named Racquet "the best organist of his time." Of Racquet's music only a single organ Fantaisie and Douze versets de psaume en duo sur les douze modes (12 duos on psalm verses) survive, in Mersenne's Traité de l'harmonie universelle (1636). The fantasia, written upon Mersenne's request to "show what could be done at the organ", is one of the most famous pieces of the French organ school. It is inspired by Dutch music, particularly that of Sweelinck: a single theme is developed through several sections, most of them imitative. The layout is as follows:
* Section 1: traditional imitative counterpoint with several countersubjects
* Section 2: imitative counterpoint on an ornamented version of the subject, with faster counterpoints
* Section 3: subject in augmentation, stated once in each voice
* Section 4: a bicinium duplici contrapuncto, a two-voice section in which the subject in its original form is combined with sixteenth-note figures in the other voice
* Section 5: a toccata above a pedal point Racquet's Fantaisie is a unique piece in the entire French keyboard repertory; nothing like it was ever written again in France. (en)
