Jean Baptiste Senaillé (23 November 1687-15 October 1730), was a French born Baroque composer and violin virtuoso. Senaillé studied under Tomaso Antonio Vitali and imported Italian musical techniques and pieces into the French court. He wrote around 50 or so violin sonatas. He is most well-known for a fast 2/4 movement from one of these sonatas, Allegro Spiritoso, which has had versions published transcribed for a wide variety of instruments, from violoncello to bassoon to euphonium.
