This work L'Art de toucher le clavecin is an important theoretical work by François Couperin.

The first edition of Couperin's L'Art de toucher le clavecin was published in Paris in 1716.

L'Art de toucher le clavecin is in fact a didactic work, in which Couperin gives detailed instructions for performing his Pièces de clavecin (the first book of which had been published in 1713) with proper style and good taste.

In 1717, Couperin published the second book of his Pièces de clavecin as well as the second edition of L'Art de toucher le clavecin which now referred to both the first and second books.

L'Art de toucher le clavecin includes eight preludes and an allemande.
