The ''canso'' or ''canson'' () was a song style used by the troubadours; it was, by far, the most common genre used, especially by early troubadours; only in the second half of the 13th century would its dominance be challenged by a growing number of poets writing ''coblas esparsas''. The ''canso'' became, in Old French, the ''grand chant'' and, in Italian, the ''canzone''. == Structure == A canso usually consists of three parts. The first stanza is the ''exordium'', where the composer explains his purpose. The main body of the song occurs in the following stanzas, and usually draw out a variety of relationships with the ''exordium''; formally, aside from the envoi(s), which are not always present, a canso is made of stanzas all having the same sequence of verses, in the sense that each verse has the same number of metrical syllables. This makes it possible to use the same melody for every stanza; the sequence can be extremely simple, as in ''Can vei la lauzeta mover'', whose stanzas consist of eight lines of eight metrical syllables each, or rather complex, as in Arnaut Daniel's ''L'aur'amara'',〔full text (here )〕 whose first stanza is: ''L'aur amara'' ''fa'ls bruels brancutz'' ''clarzir,'' ''que'l dous'espeis'ab fuelhs,'' ''e'ls letz'' ''becx'' ''dels auzels ramencx'' ''te babs e mutz,'' ''pars'' ''e non pars'', ''per que m'esfortz'' ''per far e dir'' ''plazers'' ''a manhs per lei'' ''qui m'a virat bas d'aut,'' ''don tem morir'' ''si l'afans no m'asoma.'' (the syllable count here is 3, 4, 2, 6, 2, 1, 5, 4, 1, 3, 4, 4, 2, 4, 6, 4, 6 respectively; the same structure is kept through the six full stanzas of the piece). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Canso (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
