Who was Rudolf of St Trond?

Rudolf of St Trond was a Benedictine abbot of St Trond Abbey, chronicler and composer.

A musical treatise Quaestiones in musica was attributed to him by Rudolf Steglich; another suggestion is Franco of Liège.

He wrote a chronicle Gesta Abbatum Trudonensium, on the abbots of his abbey, beginning in 999. As a historian, according to Henri de Lubac, he showed a very exacting and almost combative idea of historical truth.
