Les Chansons de Colin Muset: Textes et Mélodies

This critical edition presents all of the texts and surviving music attributed to Colin Muset, a 13th-century trouvère.

---

“In keeping with Callahan and Rosenberg’s impressive philological analysis, their discussion of Colin’s music is rich. . . . They offer some of the most sophisticated and balanced melodic analyses to date for trouvère music, thanks to an effective synthesis of music and text.”

John Haines (University of Toronto), Early Music (November 2006), 673
