Pycard, also spelt Picard and Picart (late 14th century – early 15th century) was an English or French Medieval and Renaissance transitional composer. He may have served in John of Gaunt's household in the 1390s as 'Jehan Pycard alias Vaux'. The name "Picard" suggests a French origin, but his music is regarded as being in an English tradition. He is one of the most prolific composers represented in the Old Hall Manuscript (British Library: Additional 57950), with nine works from it attributed to him. His music is in the ars nova style, and is unusual in its virtuosity.

  • Pycard, aussi épelé Picard et Picart (fin du XIVe siècle - début du XVe siècle) est un compositeur français ou anglais situé à la transition entre la musique médiévale et la musique de la Renaissance. Il a peut-être servi la maison de Jean de Gand dans les années 1390 sous le nom Jehan Pycard alias Vaux. Le nom « Picard » suggère une origine française mais sa musique est considérée comme étant de tradition anglaise. Il est l'un des compositeurs les plus prolifiques représentés dans le manuscrit Old Hall (British Library : Additional 57950), avec neuf compositions qui lui sont attribuées. Sa musique, du style ars nova, est inhabituelle par sa virtuosité. (fr)

  • Pycard, also spelt Picard and Picart (late 14th century – early 15th century) was an English or French Medieval and Renaissance transitional composer. He may have served in John of Gaunt's household in the 1390s as 'Jehan Pycard alias Vaux'. The name "Picard" suggests a French origin, but his music is regarded as being in an English tradition. He is one of the most prolific composers represented in the Old Hall Manuscript (British Library: Additional 57950), with nine works from it attributed to him. His music is in the ars nova style, and is unusual in its virtuosity. A mass by Pycard in the Old Hall Manuscript illustrates the sophistication of his isorhythmic techniques. Each quarter note in the lower part equals 4½ quarter notes in the upper parts, creating an uneven ratio of 4:9 that causes the parts to lose synchronization. The lower part then steadily contracts in a series of Pythagorean proportions (12:9:8:6) until the parts come back into alignment. (en)
