  NICOLAS GRENON FACTS AND INFORMATION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The earliest records of Grenon are from Paris, where he worked first in the Notre Dame Cathedral, and on the death of his brother moved to a job at the St Sépulchre as a canon.
The motets by Grenon are unusual in their use of strict isorhythmic technique, usually in all voices.
Grenon also wrote masses, but none survive complete; only a fragment of a Gloria remains, not enough to establish his stylistic technique for this type of composition.

Nicolas Grenon is one of the topics in focus at Global Oneness.
The history of Burgundian music began with the organization of the chapel in 1384 by Philip the Bold; by the time of his death twenty years later, it rivaled the famous establishment at Avignon in splendor.
Names associated with this early phase of Burgundian music include Johannes Tapissier and Nicolas Grenon, who carried the tradition across to the next phase of the chapel, when it was reorganized in 1415.

 Guillaume Dufay (Composer) - Short Biography
Soon Dufay's musical gifts were noticed by the cathedral authorities, who evidently gave him a thorough training in music; he studied with Rogier de Hesdin during the summer of 1409, and he was listed as a choirboy in the cathedral from 1409 to 1412.
During those years he studied with Nicolas Malin, and the authorities must have been impressed with the boy's gifts because they gave him his own copy of Villedieu’s Doctrinale in 1411, a highly unusual event for one so young.
While in Cambrai he collaborated with Nicolas Grenon on a complete revision of the liturgical musical collection of the cathedral, which included writing an extensive collection of polyphonic music for services.

 Summi et Aeterni ORDER
Palestrina's music continues to be performed and recorded, and to provide models for the study of counterpoint.
The Burgundian School of composers, led by Guillaume Dufay, demostrated charactersistics of both the late Medieval era and the early Renaissance (see Medieval music).
He also wrote drinking songs in German, and contrasting with his parallel work in the genre of the chanson, he also wrote songs on the unfortunate aspects of overindulgence.
