Juan Vásquez
Juan Vásquez , also Juan Vázquez , (* around 1500 in Badajoz , † after 1560 probably in Seville ) was a Spanish Renaissance - composer , cantor , conductor and Roman Catholic priests . He wrote vocal works of great simplicity and beauty. He is reckoned with Francisco Guerrero , Cristóbal de Morales , Juan Navarro Hispalensis and others in the Andalusian School of Composers .
Life
Early phase
Vásquez was born in Badajoz in the first decade of the 16th century. Very little biographical data of Vásquez are known from this period. In particular, one does not know the date of birth, his family background or the circumstances and scope of his musical education. Vásquez's name appears for the first time in the records of the choir of the Cathedral of Plasencia , into which he was inducted on October 27, 1511. Contra-alto is given as the pitch , which indicates that he was still a child at the time. From then on, Vásquez's trail is lost for twenty years. His name reappeared in the books of the cathedral in his hometown Badajoz in 1530. Here he was accepted as a singer in the cathedral chapel on April 22, 1530 with an annual salary of 15,000 maravedíes. According to the same document, he was appointed teacher for the cathedral boys on September 30, 1530 with the obligation to give these daily lessons in Gregorian chant , figural and counterpoint . The conductor of the Badajoz Cathedral in those years was Juan Salcedo. He appointed Vásquez on June 26, 1535 instead of Francisco Grageras as the cantor of the cathedral. This suggests that he had a very good voice. This position was combined with that of the singing teacher for the children. In the summer of 1538 Juan Vásquez left his hometown Badajoz, to which he did not return until 1545.
Middle phase
From 1538 Vásquez, like most Spanish composers of his time, went through various cathedral chapels. In 1539 he joined the chapel of Palencia Cathedral as a singer and came into contact with Castilian chapels and noble musicians. Vásquez 'works were also known to Castilian vihuelists . Some of these musicians, such as Enríquez de Valderrábano , Diego Pisador and Miguel de Fuenllana , transcribed Vásquez's works for vihuela and vocals . On April 19, 1541, at the request of the Archbishop Kapellmeister of Toledo , Juan Pardo de Tavera, the council of the Cathedral of Palencia gave him permission to travel to Madrid . In October 1541 Vásquez joined the chapel of the Archbishop of Madrid , Cardinal Tavera, as cantor . Vásquez only stayed a short time in Madrid because he is not going to Toledo with Cardinal Tavera. In 1545 Vásquez returned to Luis de Quiñónez as Kapellmeister at the Cathedral of Badajoz and remained in this position until the summer of 1550. His salary was 30,000 maravedíes . In a document from 1549, Vásquez is addressed for the first time as a clergyman ( presbyter ). In 1556 he was ordained a priest. In 1548 Vásquez moved to the neighboring Portuguese Vila Viçosa to the court of the Dukes of Braganza. The Badajoz Cathedral maintained close mutual cultural exchanges with this court.
Late phase and death
In 1551 Vásquez moved to Seville, Andalusia . He found a job with the nobleman Antonio de Zuñiga, to whom he dedicated his publication Villancicos y canciones (' Villancicos and Chants'). In this aristocratic environment he established relationships with musicians such as Francisco Guerrero, Cristóbal de Morales , Juan Navarro and Juan Bermudo . In 1556 he published his Agenda defunctorum in Seville and entered the service of Juan Bravo. The royal permission to print this book explicitly mentions that Vásquez is a priest and comes from Badajoz. Finally, in 1560 Vásquez published his famous book Recopilación de Sonetts y villancicos a cuatro ya cinco voces ('Compilation of Sonnets and Songs with Four and Five Voices'), which he dedicated to his patron Don Gonzalo de Moscoso y Cáceres Peña, in his house in Seville he served from 1560.
It was generally accepted in musicology that Vásquez stayed in Seville until his death after his last book was published in 1560. However, recent research indicates the possibility that Vásquez held the position of Master of the Chapel of the Dukes of Medina-Sidonia around 1571/1572 , so the exact date of Vásquez's death remains unknown. In particular, the musicologist Lola de la Torre asserted that Vásquez was still in the service of the most powerful noble in Spain in 1572, in the service of Alonso Pérez de Guzmán , the seventh Duke of Medina-Sidonia.
Works
All the works that came to us from Juan Vásquez were published in Andalusia. Specifically, these are the following works:
- Villancicos y canciones a tres ya cuatro voces (1551)
- Agenda defunctorum (1556)
- Recopilación de Sonetts y villancicos a cuatro ya cinco voces (1560)
Vásquez may have written other works that did not come down to us. This is suggested by the sonnet by Alonso de Barrera , which praises Vásquez and his music most highly.
"Y deste, imaginar y concertalla
Juan Vásquez tanta parte y tal alcanza,
qual muestran muchos libros que ha compuesto."
Surprisingly, not a single work by Vásquez was found in the form of a handwritten source. Even the works that he wrote as Kapellmeister of Badajoz Cathedral are not even in the archives of this cathedral.
The profane work: canzons, villancicos and sonnets
Vásquez's works with secular themes can be found in the Villancicos y canciones a tres ya cuatro voces and in the Recopilación de Sonetts y villancicos a cuatro ya cinco voces . They contain pieces in the Spanish language mainly in the form of villancicos , i.e. in the form of three or four-part songs for popular secular or sacred singing.
In contrast to other composers who were also priests such as Francisco Guerrero, Vásquez published his profane works, including the works that dealt with the theme of "love", in a way that did not raise these songs into a divine sphere. Some of the texts of his works come from well-known contemporary poets and writers such as Juan Boscán , Garcilaso de la Vega , Gil Vicente or the Comendador Escrivá . Other songs, however, are based on poetic folk texts and popular sayings. In addition, many of his Villancicos are based on popular melodies.
In the compositions with profane themes, Vásquez continues the tradition of popular villancicos and romances of the late fifteenth century as popularized by Juan del Encina and Francisco de la Torre . However, he initiated a gradual development towards the Italian madrigal . In volume 4 of his work Declaración de instrumentos musicales, the music theorist Juan Bermudo reports the extraordinarily high quality of these Vásquez pieces of music, which should be studied, such as the works of Josquin des Prés , Adrian Willaert , Cristóbal de Morales or Nicolas Gombert .
The first of Vásquez's songbooks Villancicos y canciones a tres ya cuatro was published in 1551 in the print shop of Juan de León in Osuna . It was dedicated to his then patron Antonio de Zúñiga . It consists of 26 villancicos and canzons. Unfortunately, only a copy of one part has survived, so that only one part of the works is originally available. The Real Academia de la Historia opposes this well-known statement by Samuel Rubio and José María Llorens with the statement that the part books of all four voices are available in the Biblioteca de la Fundación Bartolomé March in Palma de Mallorca .
The second surviving collection of the Recopilación de Sonetts y villancicos a cuatro ya cinco voces is more important . It was published in Seville in 1560 by the printer Juan Gutiérrez. It was dedicated to Don Gonzalo de Moscoso y Cáceres Peña , who belonged to a noble family from Extremadura . The work comprises a total of 77 pieces, including villancicos, canzons and madrigals. Some of these pieces were already included in his first book from 1551. Some of the works included were first published as intabulations for Viuhela by the vihuelists Enríquez de Valderrábano, Diego Pisador y Miguel de Fuenllana. A total of 82 different compositions have been preserved in the two song publications and passed on to posterity.
The sacred work: The Agenda defunctorum
The Agenda defunctorum is the only sacred work of Vásquez that has come down to us. It was printed in 1556 by the printer Martín Montes de Oca in Seville. It is dedicated to Juan Bravo de Morata , the son of Martín Bravo Morata , an established family from Lorca . So far, two copies of the book have been found, one in the library of the Diputación de Barcelona and one in the archives of the Cathedral of Valladolid.
The work is a monumental mass for the dead, indeed the most extensive mass for the dead of all Renaissance polyphonists and Renaissance composers. Vásquez composed the entire office of the dead musically in a uniform and coherent way.
The Agenda defunctorum consists of a total of 27 parts: 18 for the Officium defunctorum , the actual office for the dead and 9 for the Missa pro defunctis , the funeral mass. The Officium defunctorum itself consists of an introduction with a psalm, nine antiphons, a responsory, the chant of Zacharias and the Requiescant in pace . The actual structure of the Agenda defunctorum is laid out as follows:
-
Officium defunctorum (office of the dead):
-
Ad Matutinum (for morning prayer):
- Invitatorio with a psalm
- In Primo Nocturno (first night): 3 antifone and 3 readings
- In Secundo Nocturno (second night): 3 antifons and 1 reading
- In Tertio Nocturno (third night): 3 antifons, 1 reading and 1 responsory
- Ad Laudes (for prayer): 2 pieces: The Song of Zacharias and the Lament Requiescant in pace. Amen
-
Ad Matutinum (for morning prayer):
- Missa pro defunctis (funeral mass): 9 pieces
Most of the pieces are composed for four voices, some for three and others for 5 voices. With the exception of the readings, all pieces are set as polyphonic melodies alternating with Gregorian melodies.
The transcriptions for the Viuhela
As already mentioned, some Castilian vihuelists have transcribed works by Vásquez for vihuela and solo voice. These are exactly nineteen adapted works by Vásquez, which were published in the following three Vihuela collections:
- Silva de Sirenas , by Enríquez de Valderrábano published in Valladolid 1547 . Contains 3 transcriptions for Vihuela.
- Libro de música de vihuela , by Diego Pisador . Published in Salamanca , 1552 . Contains 3 transcriptions for Vihuela.
- Orphénica Lyra , by Miguel de Fuenllana . Published in Seville , 1554 . Contains 13 transcriptions for Vihuela.
From the printing years of these Vihuela collections it can be seen that Vásquez's pieces of music were made known to the public by the Vihuelists mentioned before the publication of his own music books. For example, Valderrábano published the piece Quién me otorgase señora in 1547 thirteen years before the actual Vásquez publication took place.
