A Chantar - Songs of the Troubadours and Trouvères - booklet - Trouvere Medieval Minstrels
'A Chantar' focuses on the songs of the troubadours and the trouvères, and for each song we provide the tune in accessible modern notation, the full words of the original song, and an English translation of those words.
There is a short introduction giving something of the historical context for these songs, their different genres, and some specific issues in their performance. There is also a pronunciation guide for occitan and medieval French.
