Perotinus, the first true composer in the modern sense, and one of my favorite musicians. Incredible how close his music appears to a certain minimalism. In fact he is a composer much loved by Steve Reich, who was inspired by him for his composition Proverb. A composer in advance of 800 years, that's not a little I would say ...

[@yunoewig3095]

He is not 800 years in advance, rather, he is timeless.

[@MRL8770]

I knew this reminded me of some modern compsitions, but I could put my finger on the exact example. Then as soon as you mentioned Steve Reich, it just made sense.

[@jeanmcaneny6951]

La simplicité du chant et l'envoûtement produit sont la fibre même de notre être!

With regards to the burning of Notre Dame: Let us not despair. The great Cathedrals have suffered fires before. Notre Dame de Paris will be rebuilt, as it has been before, as so many other ancient temples of Christianity and Christian culture have before. No great Cathedral was built within merely a few years -- most were built over the space of several centuries, with different materials and techniques, all in service of extraordinary beauty representing the glory of God. As we enjoy this wonderful work from Pérotin, the first great master of polyphony, let us rejoice and be grateful for all the culture and history which we have inherited.

I'm sincerely interested in the question of authenticity, but I have no musical education apart from many, many years of listening.
