rondeau

rahn-DOE

[French]

Medieval and Renaissance style of courtly love song. The music was derived from the rotundellum, which was a circle dance. The definitive characteristic of the rondeau was its structure: A-B-a-A-a-b-A-B. The upper case "A" represents a refrain or a repeat of music and text, and the lower case "a" represents a repeat of music with different text.
