Guillaume Veau or Viaux, described as a maistre (master of arts), was a thirteenth-century trouvère. Three chansons courtoises are attributed to him in the Vatican manuscript Reg.lat.1490:

  • J'ai amé trestout mon vivant
  • Meudre achoison n'euc onques de chanter
  • S'amours loiaus m'a fait soufrir

The first two of these are unica, that is, they appear in no other source. They both end on a note other than the tonal centre of the first four phrases. The "moderately florid" melodies of all three are written in bar form.
