A female troubadour, or trobairitz: The trobairitz were Provençal female troubadours of the 12th century and the 13th century who wrote in Langue d'oc. The word trobairitz was first used in the 13th-century romance Flamenca. It comes from the Provençal word trobar, the literal meaning of which is "to find", and the technical meaning of which is "to compose".

Comtessa de Día or Beatriz de Día (flourished late 12th/early 13th century) was the daughter of Count Isoard II of Día (a town on the Drôme in the marquisate of Provence). According to her vida, she was married to Guillem or Guilhem de Poitiers, Count of Viennois but she was in love with Raimbaut of Orange. Her song "A chantar m'er de so qu'eu no volria" is the only canso by a trobairitz to survive with its music intact.

Condesa de Dia was from 13th century Catalonia. She was a female troubadour of courtly music at a time when this type of music was considered to be about illicit love, and was usually written by men. Other than that, very little is known about her.
