# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born Giovanni Battista Lulli in Florence in late November 1632, he arrived in France young and rose through the court as a dancer and instrumentalist before becoming Louis XIV's composer. He naturalized in 1661 and spent decades shaping the French Baroque sound, collaborating with Molière on comédie-ballets including Le Bourgeois gentilhomme, L'Amour médecin, and Psyché. The partnership produced a new hybrid form that married theatre and music in ways the French court had never seen. He died in March 1687, a few months after a conducting accident turned fatal.
