Pérotin
Pérotin (fl.c. 1200), also called Perotin the Great, was a European composer, believed to be French, who lived around the end of the 12th and beginning of the 13th century. He was the most famous member of the Notre Dame school of polyphony and the ars antiqua style. He was one of very few composers of his day whose name has been preserved, and can be reliably attached to individual compositions; this is due to the testimony of an anonymous English student at Notre Dame known as Anonymous IV, who wrote about him and his predecessor Léonin. Anonymous IV called him "Magister Perotinus" ("Pérotin the Master").[1] The title, employed also by Johannes de Garlandia, means that Perotinus, like Leoninus, earned the degree magister artium, almost certainly in Paris, and that he was licensed to teach. The name Perotinus, the Latin diminutive of Petrus, is assumed to be derived from the French name Pérotin, diminutive of Pierre. The diminutive was presumably a mark of respect bestowed by his colleagues. He was also designated "magnus" by Anonymous IV, a mark of the esteem in which he was held, even long after his death.[2]

At the time it was under construction a remarkable composer also lived and worked there. He has come down to be known, possibly under a pseudonym, as Magister Perotinus or Perotin.
The Hilliard Ensemble are far from strangers to his extraordinary music having, under the direction in those days of Paul Hillier, made a revelatory CD of his music back in 1988 on the ECM label (1385 837 751-2). That disc has never been bettered by anyone ... not even by themselves. It was with that in mind and knowing that the group is slightly differently formatted now, that I went straight to the third disc in the set, the bonus disc. This includes pieces by Perotin and those attributed to him, also recorded in 1988. There�s also some new material from a slightly earlier period by Leonin and from the St. Martial school of about 1150 which helps put Perotin�s genius into perspective.
Back in 1988 the revelatory experience of hearing this music sung with such commitment was stunning although many other performers had tackled it including David Munrow. One characteristic the Hilliard�s•
