Guillaume le Heurteur, also known as Guillaume Heurteur and Guillaume Hurteur, () was a French composer of the Renaissance about whom very little is known. Life and works Very little information is available on the life of Guillaume le Heurteur. He was the author of four masses, two Magnificats, twenty-two motets and twenty-six chasons which were published between 1530 and 1545 which were published in either Paris or Lyon. A surviving front page of a manuscript containing settings of the biblical poem Song of Songs mentions Heurteur on the title page as the author or motets contained within it, but the remainder of the manuscript has been lost.
