Blacasset

1233–1242[1]) was a Provençal troubadour of the noble family of the Blacas, lords of Aulps, in the Empire.

[1][2] He was also distantly related to Charles I of Naples and Raymond Berengar IV of Provence.

A document of 1238 (two years after his father's death) mentions three sons of the elder Blacatz, two of which were named Blacacius.

[1] Eleven of his works survive, three sirventes, four cansos, and four coblas, including one single-stanza canso with a melody in F major, Ben volgra quem venques merces.

[1] This song was appended to a manuscript of the chansonnier du roi of Theobald I of Navarre in the early fourteenth-century.

En blancassetz si fo fills denblancatz q' fon meillor gentil hom de proenza . . .
Sir Blacasset was the son of Sir Blacatz, who was the greatest gentleman in Provence. . ."
