Monk of Salzburg
A page of music from the Monk of Salzburg's Ave Maria, from the Mondsee-Wiener Liederhandschrift of the mid-15th century.
The Monk of Salzburg (German: Mönch von Salzburg) was a German composer of the late 14th century. Although his name is unknown, as is his monastic order, all the manuscripts that contain his works "agree that he was a learned monk who wrote sacred and secular songs".[1] He lived at the court of Pilgrim von Puchheim, archbishop of Salzburg (1365–96).[2]
