José Castel (Tudela, Navarre 1737-1807) was a Spanish composer. José Castel was a church musician in his native Tudela and Aragon before moving to Madrid around 1760. There, in addition to his church duties, he was active as a theatrical composer, for the Teatro del Príncipe,〔(Painting )〕 as well as a printer and publisher. Castel was well paid for his music, for example he received 360 reales for the music for the comedy ''El Faetón''.〔Emilio Cotarelo y Mori ''Historia de la zarzuela, o sea el drama lírico en España, desde su origen''. p125 "por la música de la comedia El Faetón, 360 reales a don José Castel"〕 In 1773 he moved back to Tudela, as ''maestro de capilla'' at the Colegiata de Santa Maria, yet he continued 1774-1782 to still be based in Madrid and spend more time on theatrical activities. In 1797, following the death of his wife, he was ordained a priest, dying on Sept. 2nd 1807 and being buried in Tudela Cathedral. He was particularly regarded for his tonadillas.〔Beatriz Gurbindo Gil ''José Castel (1737-1807) y la tonadilla, entre Tudela y Madrid'' Revista aragonesa de musicología, ISSN 0213-7305, Vol. 17, Nº 1-2, 2001 , pags. 243-304〕 ==Selected recordings== * ''La fontana del placer''.
