Unfortunately, very little is known about the life of this composer, including their birth and upbringing. However, their music has survived and continues to be performed and studied today. The Laudario di Firenze, or the Florence Laudario, is a collection of sacred songs that were likely composed in the 14th century. The manuscript contains 47 songs, all of which are anonymous. It is believed that Florentine Laudario Anonymous may have been one of the composers of these songs. The Florence Laudario was discovered in the 19th century and has since become an important source of information about the music of the late medieval period. The songs in the manuscript are written in Italian and are primarily hymns to the Virgin Mary. They are written in a simple, straightforward style that is typical of the period. One of the most famous songs in the Florence Laudario is "Ave Maria, gratia plena" (Hail Mary, full of grace). This song is a hymn to the Virgin Mary and is still performed today.

Another notable song in the Florence Laudario is "O Maria, Deo grata" (O Mary, pleasing to God). This song is also a hymn to the Virgin Mary and is written in a similar style to "Ave Maria, gratia plena." It is a beautiful example of the devotional music that was popular during the late medieval period. While very little is known about the life of Florentine Laudario Anonymous, their music has had a lasting impact on the world of classical music. The Florence Laudario is an important source of information about the music of the late medieval period and continues to be studied and performed today.
