Here is a short description of the artist:
Guillaume de Machaut is a renowned medieval composer, known for his contributions to the classical music scene, particularly in the genres of medieval and Gregorian chant music.
Translation to English (UK) is not necessary as the description is already in English, but I can provide it in British English spelling if needed:
Guillaume de Machaut is a renowned medieval composer, known for his contributions to the classical music scene, particularly in the genres of medieval and Gregorian chant music.
Note: Since English (US) and English (UK) are very similar, the translation is almost identical. The only possible difference could be in spelling, such as "renowned" (which is the same in both US and UK English), or vocabulary, which is not the case here.
