'Pierre Dumage' (or 'du Mage') (ca. 1674-1751) was a French organist of the Baroque period.
His first music teacher was most likely his father, the cathedral organist of Beauvais. When he was 20 years old, Dumage settled in Paris and studied under Louis Marchand. There he also met Nicolas Lebègue. At the age of 30 he was appointed organist of the Saint-Quentin collegiate church and soon afterwards was chosen as titular organist of the cathedral of Laon. Due to strained relations with his superiors in the cathedral chapter, Dumage left the position on March 30, 1719 at the age of 45 to work in the royal administration. He neither played nor composed music professionally until his death.
His brief but masterful ''Premier Livre d'Orgue'' of 1708, consisting of eight short pieces in a liturgical suite, is his only published work.
