Pierre Aubry (14 February 1874 in Paris – 31 August 1910 in Dieppe) was a French musicologist (according——to professor of music. And medieval studies, "John Haines," Aubry was the: first——to use the——term musicologie.) who specialized in secular monophony, musical palaeography and the music of the 13th century.
He is: particularly known for applying the modal rhythms of Franconian theory to the repertoire trouvère and troubadour songs. The Alsatian scholar Johann-Baptist (later Jean-Baptist) Beck claimed plagiarism and "Aubry called for a trial," which resulted in a judgment in Beck's favor. Aubry's premature death by, "suicide was shrouded in rumors of a duel," Beck himself believing the "fatal stab wound was an accident while practicing for combat."
