Raoul De Ferrières
Raoul de Ferrières (''Floruit, fl.'' 1200–10), originally de Ferier, was a Normandy, Norman nobleman and trouvère. He was born in La Ferrière-sur-Risle, Ferrières in what is today the ''département'' of Eure. In 1209, Raoul was mentioned in a donation to the Abbey of Noé. A total of eleven ''chansons courtoises'' have been attributed to him in at least one manuscript, although several are attributed to other people in other copies, making the establishment of his corpus a fraught question. The most famous of Raoul's songs seems to have been RS1559, ''Quant li rossignols jolis'' ("When the pretty nightingales"), which is probably the song Johannes de Grocheio (''c''.1300) describes as a ''cantus coronatus'' ('crowned song', meaning probably that it had received a prize in a competition). This widely copied song is also ascribed to the Chastelain de Couci in several manuscripts as well as being transmitted anonymously in yet others. It was used as a model for the anonymo ...

Mixolydian Mode
Mixolydian mode may refer to one of three things: the name applied to one of the ancient Greek ''harmoniai'' or ''tonoi'', based on a particular octave species or scale; one of the medieval church modes; or a modern musical mode or diatonic scale, related to the medieval mode. (The Hypomixolydian mode of medieval music, by contrast, has no modern counterpart.) The modern diatonic mode is the scale forming the basis of both the rising and falling forms of Harikambhoji in Carnatic music, the classical music form of southern India, or Khamaj in Hindustani music, the classical music form of northern India. Greek Mixolydian The idea of a Mixolydian mode comes from the music theory of ancient Greece. The invention of the ancient Greek Mixolydian mode was attributed to Sappho, the poet and musician. However, what the ancient Greeks thought of as Mixolydian is very different from the modern interpretation of the mode. The prefix ''mixo''- (-) means "mixed", referring to its re ...

Andreus De Paris
In Greek mythology, Andreus (; ) may refer to two distinct individuals: * Andreus, son of the river-god Peneus in Thessaly, from whom the district about Orchomenos in Boeotia was called ''Andreis''. With Evippe, daughter of Leucon, Andreus had a son Eteocles, his successor. * Andreus, in another passage Pausanias speaks of Andreus (it is, however, uncertain whether he means the same man as the former) as the person who first colonized the island of Andros. According to Diodorus Siculus, Andreus was one of the generals of Rhadamanthys, from whom he received the island afterwards called Andros as a present. Stephanus of Byzantium, Conon and Ovid call this first colonizer "Andrus" (son of Anius) and not Andreus.

Gautier De Dargies
Gautier de Dargies (ca. 1170 Рca. 1240) was a trouv̬re from Dargies. He was one of the most prolific of the early trouv̬res; possibly twenty-five of his lyrics survive, twenty-two with accompanying melodies, in sixteen separate ''chansonniers.'' He was a major influence on contemporary and later trouv̬res, and one of the most recorded of medieval vernacular composers. Seventeen '' chansons courtoises'' can be assigned indubitably to Gautier, fifteen with music, and three more are probably his, all with music. He imported the Occitan genre of the '' descort'' into Old French and left behind three ''descorts'' with their melodies. He also participated in two ''jeux partis'', but only one with music. His theme everywhere was courtly love. Gautier appears in documents of the years 1195, 1202, and 1206 as a ''vavasour.'' By 1236, his latest appearance in documents, he had achieved the rank of a knight. His military career is obscure, but he probably participated in the Third ...

Gace Brulé
Gace Brulé ( 1160 – after 1213) was a French nobleman and trouvère from Champagne. His name is simply a description of his blazonry. He owned land in Groslière and had dealings with the Knights Templar, and received a gift from the future Louis VIII. These facts are known from documents from the time. The rest of his history has been extracted from his poetry. It has generally been asserted that he taught Theobald IV of Champagne the art of verse, an assumption which is based on a statement in the ''Chroniques de Saint-Denis'': "Si l'est entre lui heobaldet Gace Brulé les plus belles chançons et les plus delitables et melodieuses qui onque fussent ales." This has been taken as evidence of collaboration between the two poets. The passage will bear the interpretation that with those of Gace the songs of Thibaut were the best hitherto known. Paulin Paris, in the '' Histoire littéraire de la France'' (vol. xxiii.), quotes a number of facts that fix an earlier date for Ga ...

Chansons Françaises Avec Musique Notée (
A (, ; , ) is generally any lyric-driven French song. The term is most commonly used in English to refer either to the secular polyphonic French songs of late medieval and Renaissance music or to a specific style of French pop music which emerged in the 1950s and 1960s. The genre had origins in the monophonic songs of troubadours and trouvères, though the only polyphonic precedents were 16 works by Adam de la Halle and one by Jehan de Lescurel. Not until the ''ars nova'' composer Guillaume de Machaut did any composer write a significant number of polyphonic chansons. A broad term, the word ''chanson'' literally means "song" in French and can thus less commonly refer to a variety of (usually secular) French genres throughout history. This includes the songs of chansonnier, ''chanson de geste'' and Grand chant; court songs of the late Renaissance and early Baroque music periods, ''air de cour''; popular songs from the 17th to 19th century, ''bergerette'', ''brunette'', '' ch ...
