Explanation:

Guillaume De Machaut was a french composer and poet born in Machaut, considered the greatest musician of Ars Nova, period that includes all music composed between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries. Canon of the famous Reims cathedral, he was secretary of John of Luxembourg (1296-1346), king of Bohemia (1310-1346). His musical work is considered one of the high points of 14th century art. He was the author of lyrics, ballads, dances, motets and the famous Messe Notre Dame, the first polyphonic mass. Ars Nova's style is more expressive and refined, its rhythms more flexible and the most evolved polyphony. He died in Reims, a town in the Champagne region of northeastern France. As a curiosity, for almost a thousand years (898-1825), all the kings of France were consecrated in Reims in ceremonies and parties watered with Champagne. In the beginning, the wine produced in the region was similar to that of other areas of France, with the difference. slightly effervescent when aged in vats.
