Pérotin (fl. c. 1200) was a composer associated with the Notre Dame school of polyphony in Paris and the broader 'ars antiqua' musical style of high medieval music. He is credited with developing the polyphonic practices of his predecessor, Léonin, with the introduction of three and four-part harmonies.
Other than a brief mention by music theorist Johannes de Garlandia in his 'De Mensurabili Musica', virtually all information on Pérotin's life comes from Anonymous IV, a pseudonymous English student. Anonymous IV names seven titles from a 'Magnus Liber'—including 'Viderunt omnes', 'Sederunt principes' and 'Alleluia Nativitas'—that have been identified with surviving works and gives him the title 'Magister Perotinus' (Pérotinus the Master) meaning he was licensed to teach. It is assumed that Perotinus was French and named Pérotin, a diminutive of Peter, but attempts to match him with persons in contemporary documents remain speculative.
