Quite young, historically. The life expectancy at that time was about 45 years, so troubadors presumably were the younger, fitter persons of the day. Probably early 20's.

What were troubadours trouveres and jogleurs?

Troubadours and trouvères were medieval poet-musicians from the Occitan and Old French-speaking regions, respectively, who composed and performed lyric poetry, often focusing on themes of chivalry and courtly love. Troubadours were active primarily in the 11th to 13th centuries in southern France, while trouvères emerged in the northern regions around the same time. Jogleurs, on the other hand, were itinerant performers who often accompanied the troubadours and trouvères, entertaining audiences with songs, stories, and acrobatics, but were generally not associated with the same literary sophistication. Together, these figures played a vital role in the cultural landscape of medieval Europe.

Compare modern troubadours to middle age troubadours.?

Medieval troubadours were poet-composers who served patrons at courts of the nobility. They were of many social classes, but mostly of the noble class. They sometimes performed their own compositions, but often employed joglars to perform for them. Their songs covered a variety of topics from love to politics and debate. Their songs were orally circulated, but they were NOT folk musicians, they wrote for the upper class. They may have wandered, but not aimlessly; from court to court, looking for a patron. Modern troubadours usually identify themselves with the folk movement, and believe that the roots of medieval traditions are found in folk, the music of the people. They are usually wandering, disenfranchised persons who have an important message to share through the medium of music. They are similar to the medieval troubadours in that the text and the music are of equal importance to them.


Where would troubadours perform?

Troubadours typically performed in courts, castles, and noble households, entertaining the aristocracy with their songs and poetry. They also sang in public spaces such as town squares and marketplaces, where they could reach a broader audience. Their performances often accompanied social events, celebrations, and festivities, contributing to the cultural life of medieval society.
