a| Michel-Paul Guy de Chabanon (Saint-Domingue, 1730-10 June 1792, Paris) was a violinist, composer, music theorist, and connoisseur of French literature. He was elected to the Académie des inscriptions et belles-lettres (1760) and the Académie française (1779). His double identity as a writer and a musician gave him a unique viewpoint on the links between music and language and in developing a philosophy of music of which his work was the expression. He also contributed to defining opera as a musical genre.

a| In the 'Réflexions préliminaires', Chabanon considers this book as an extension of his earlier 'Observations sur la musique, et principalement sur la métaphysique de l'art' (1779; see 15G24a)
