At one time it was thought that Léonin and Pérotin were the same person, but proper research has determined that they indeed were two different composers working at the same in and around Notre Dame Cathedral in the 12th Century. I certainly hope they were friends, or at least got along with each other......That would be awkward if they didn't...
