Over Guillaume de Machaut

Guillaume de Machaut, een Franse componist en dichter uit de late middeleeuwen, staat bekend als de centrale figuur van de ars nova-stijl. Zijn invloedrijke werk heeft de muziekgeschiedenis diepgaand beïnvloedd, waardoor moderne muziekdeskundigen zijn overlijden gebruiken om de ars nova te scheiden van de latere ars subtilior-beweging. Machaut wordt beschouwd als de meest betekenisvolle Franse componist en dichter van de 14e eeuw en wordt vaak gezien als de leidende Europese componist van zijn tijd. Zijn muziek, die varieert van middeleeuwse en gregoriaanse gezangen tot klassieke composities, biedt een rijkdom aan klank en emotie die nog steeds de harten van muziekminnaars raakt.
