Biography
PirroBN, acta1061, 147v, 25.10.1482: Lignoquercu hérite de sa prébende à Cambrai, vacante par son décès “in curia romana”. Notes diverses: Reçu 3.6.1474 par permutation de l’église de Tournai.
• NG2:Hanart [Anart, Henart], Martin (d Rome, 16 Nov 1482). Franco-Flemish composer. He was a cleric of the diocese of Cambrai and canon of Cambrai Cathedral. From December 1468 until his death he sang in the papal chapel; and Tinctoris dedicated his Tractatus de notis et pausis (c1474-5) "to the illustrious Martin Hanart, canon of Cambrai and apostolic singer". A florid two-voice Le serviteur (based on the discantus of Dufay's song) is ascribed "Hanart" in Petrucci's Canti C (Venice, 1504-3; it appears anonymously in I-Bc Q16, copied by 1487); given that it is one of the earliest known examples of this florid style, it can hardly have been composed long before Hanart's death. He is to be distinguished from Jean Hemart.
• Merkley1999, p.141 signale un sauf-conduit du 28.9.1476 pour le chantre Martin Hanart se rendant à Rome avec 5 compagnons. Discussion p.115 de la possibilité que “Martin Hansart” soit le “Martinus” auquel un salaire de 14 ducats est alors proposé (sinon: Jean Martini).
• Aucune information avant 1468. Peut-il s’agir de (Planchart): Martin (Martinet), no last name recorded: was a small vicar from 11 August 1465 to 17 February 1466 [LAN, 4G 7464, 5v; 4G 7465, 5v]. He is probably the Martin, small vicar, who was briefly excommunicated from 20 to 23 June 1466 for pummeling Jehan Gronen with his fists [CBM 1060, 244r-244v].
