Hirsch I, 66. Scarce. The second edition of the work first published in 1754. "Although best-known for his Exposition (1754), Béthizy also clarified, expanded and revised some of Rameau's ideas and formulated several of his own. His concept of 'censée-toniques' and his use of barred figures for dominant chords were adopted by Rameau in his Code de musique pratique (1760). D'Alembert and Béthizy quarrelled over Rameau's theories in the Journal oeconomique following the publication of d'Alembert's Elémens in 1752. Nevertheless in the second edition (1762) d'Alembert recommended the Exposition as a practical supplement." A. Louise H. Earhart in Grove Music Online Only two of Béthizy's musical compositions have survived, the cantailles Le transport amoureux and Le volage fixé.
