:''To be distinguished from Juan García de Salazar (1639-1710)'' Spanish composer. Antonio de Salazar (c.1650–1715) was a Mexican composer.〔Barwick, Steven. ed. Two Mexico City Choirbooks of 1717: an Anthology of Sacred Polyphony from the Cathedral of Mexico, Southern Illinois University Press〕 Salazar was born in Seville, Spain. He arrived in New Spain in 1688 as chapel master of Puebla Cathedral, then later held his final position at Mexico City Cathedral. It is unknown if he had any direct connection to Oaxaca Cathedral though some of his compositions are found in manuscript there. He died in Mexico City, Mexico. In his sacred Latin works Salazar was noted for a strict contrapuntal style harking back to Palestrina. The musicologist Bruno Turner considers that Salazar "represents the last of the truly conservative Hispanic composers before the all-conquering Italian style took Spain and its Empire by storm".〔Turner, Bruno. Essay in booklet to ''Masterpieces of Mexican Polyphony'' (Hyperion CDH55317). 1990〕 Salazar also composed lighter pieces including Christmas ''villancicos,'' including several in the ''negrillo'' genre imitating the dialects and dances of African slaves. ==Works== Motets * (Credidi quod locutus sum ) * O sacrum convivium * Joseph fili David * Gloriosa virginum * Te Joseph celebrent * Vexilla Regis prodeunt ''Villancicos'' * Tarará tarará qui yo soy Antoniyo〔Recording, commentary, lyrics and translation, in ''Nueva España Close Encounters with the New World, 1590-1690'' Boston Camerata - Joel Cohen CD Erato 2292 45977-2, reissued as Apex (Warner) 2564-62408-2 2006〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Antonio de Salazar (composer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
