Wikipedia Infos:
Jean-Nicolas Geoffroy, born in Vitry-le-François around 1633 and died in Perpignan on March 11, 1694, is a French composer, harpsichordist and organist of the Baroque period.

The life of this musician (probably a student of Lebègue) is not known until around 1690 when he was organist at the Saint-Nicolas-du-Chardonnet church in Paris and an expert in the making of this instrument. He then moved to Perpignan where he held the organ of the Saint-Jean-Baptiste cathedral from 1692

Note:
These pieces were perhaps not composed by J.N Geoffroy but by various anonymous people from the same period (around 1690).
However, this music is original and interesting.
