Bio

Guillame de Machaut was born near Rheims. He served in the court of John I, Count of Luxembourg and King of Bohemia, and traveled with him around Europe. After John's death at Crécy, Machaut served several other patrons including Charles V, Duke of Normandy, and Charles II of Navarre. His legacy is as significant in poetry as it is in music.
