Life

Antonio Abadía took up the post of Kapellmeister in Burgos on November 27, 1780 as the successor to Don Francisco Hernández Illana . Illana was the last Kapellmeister to whom the office was connected with a benefice. According to a bull Benedict XIV , his successor Abadia was only a "raconiero" without benefice. Musically, he had singers and a small orchestra. For these he made compositions with richly decorated melodies. He composed every kind of music that was needed in the cathedral. Outstanding was the music for "Nona de la Asuncion", which was performed without interruption until 1828 when Don Placido Garcia wrote a new composition. He died on October 27, 1791.
