Ademar lo Negre

Ademar lo Negre [In his "vida", he is called "N'Aimars lo Negres" (Lord Aimar the Black). His name is also spelled "Azemar"("s") ( _fr. Ademar le Noir, _la. Adelmarus Niger).] was a troubadour from Languedoc in the early thirteenth century (fl. 1210–1219). He was originally from from Château-Vieux ("Castelveill"), which was under the jurisdiction of the Trencavel lords of Albi at the time. He was patronised by Peter II of Aragon and Raymond VI of Toulouse and even spent some time at the court of Ferdinand III of Castile. Four "cansos" of his survive.
