(a French word from aube, the dawn), the dawn-song of the troubadours of Provence, developed by the Minnesingers of Germany into the Tagelied, the song of the parting at dawn of lovers at the warning of the watchman. In France in modern times the term is applied to the performance of a military band in the early morning in honour of some distinguished person.
