Hellas hellas - Pierre Certon - Aino Lund Lavoipierre and Tommy Johansson

A four part song from the mid 16th century France by Pierre Certon (d Paris, 23 Feb 1572). He may have been a native of Melun, where in 1527 Jehan Certon was documented as fermier du fourrage to the king. Certon was appointed matins clerk at Notre Dame, Paris, on 29 October 1529. On 26 September 1530 he was summoned before the chapter for playing ball in the square of Notre Dame and refusing to attend the service; only his youth saved him from a prison sentence. On 8 May 1532 he became clerk at the Ste Chapelle under Canon Odon de Colligny, son of Gaspard de Colligny and brother of the Admiral of France. On 15 November 1536, while still merely a clerk, he was appointed Master of the Choristers. He held that post, adding to it benefices within the diocese, until his death. Several of his pieces were intabulated for the lute and the 4-course guitar during his lifetime.
