  Adam de la Halle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adam de la Halle (also known as Adam le Bossu (Adam the Hunchback) 1237?-1288) was a French-born trouvère, poet and musician, who broke with the long-established tradition of writing liturgical poetry and music to be an early founder of secular theater in France.
Adam had been destined for the church, but renounced this intention, and married a certain Marie, who figures in many of his songs, rondeaux, motets and jeux-partis.
Adam's shorter pieces are accompanied by music, of which a transcript in modern notation, with the original score, is given in Coussemaker's edition.

 HOASM: Adam de la Halle
The son of a burgher of Arras, Adam was educated at the Cistercian Abbey of Vaucelles and intended for the priesthood, but he fell in love and insisted on marrying (the marriage did not last).
The esteem in which de la Halle was held in his time is evidenced by the fact that his were the first musical works to be collected and edited.
Adam was among the few thirteenth century composers to apply polyphonic techniques to the various contemporary types of secular music-ballade, rondeau and virelai; sixteen such pieces, in conductus style, survive.

The three-voice rondeau “Tant con je vivrai”, by Adam de la Halle, is a delightful entertainment and the concluding ballade by Dufay, the inimitable “Se la face ay pale”, is clearly and carefully sung even if the ensemble technique is a bit rough around the edges.
The instrumental contributions--everything from vielle and rebec to harp, cornemuse, and all manner of flutes--add the vivid color and flavor we expect from music of this period.
Although I understand the rationale for including the poetic readings--after all, the themes from Roman de la Rose are what this musical program is about--the insertion of spoken texts, especially in old French, is more of a distraction than an enhancement of the musical experience.
