Johann Christoph Pepusch (1667- July 20, 1752) was a German composer. At age 14, he was appointed to the Prussian court. About 1700, he settled in England. Although he is best known for his arrangement of the music for The Beggar's Opera (1728) - to the libretto of John Gay, he composed many other works including stage and church music as well as a number of concertos and trio sonatas for oboe, violin and basso continuo.
