Two works of music theory from the endings of the 15th Century with the name of author Guillermus de Podio are preserved: the printed Ars musicorum (València, Hagenbach and Hutz, 1495) and the manuscript Enchiridion de principiis musice discipline contra negantes illa et destruentes. Despite the great influence that this musician exerted on Spanish theorists of the 16th Century, there are only few commonly accepted data about his biography. This article pretends to offer solid foundations to build his biography. In first place, verified from speculated data in the historiography of the musician will be distinguished. Finally, new documents will clarify his identity and will reveal his work as master of chant in the catedral of Valencia.
