[VIHUELA] Re: Santiago de Murcia
Well - yes - but what I really want to know is how well known was Murcia before the Saldivar Codex hit the shelves. Sanz has always been with us - I first heard his music played on the radio in 1954 but Murcia seems to be a relatively late discovery. I wonder why. There is a copy of Resumen in the Biblioteca nacional in Madrid but Pujol doesn't seem to have been familiar with it. I am writing a sort of retrospective of recordings of M's music for Hispanica Lyra trying to comment on different ways of performing it. Any thoughts on the subject welcome!

But are we sure Santiago de Murcia never went to the New World? Well - yes. There is no reason to suppose that he did. It is now known that he was born in Madrid in 1673 and died there in 1739 in poverty and buried in a pauper's grave. The "biography" which was invented for him was entirely a work of fiction. The manuscripts which have come to light in Mexico and Chile were almost certainly copied in Madrid and sent to patrons in the New World. The British Library were certainly of the opinion that Passacalles y obras was copied and bound in Spain - and they are experts in these matters. But once the idea that he went to Mexico was put in circulation there was no stopping it. I tried my best - a voice crying in the wilderness.

Hi Monica, You're not getting old, you're getting wise : ) Yes, I think some performers exploit the "popular" idea because it sells so well. It's challenging for both performer and listener to be more thoughtful about what the performance context really might have been. It's such a temptation to make up something especially attractive to 20^th, 21^st century audiences. But are we sure Santiago de Murcia never went to the New World?

[VIHUELA] Re: Santiago de Murcia
Thanks, Monica. Rob 2008/11/14 Monica Hall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For those of you who are interested in Murcia, Alejandro Vera has another article about him in the November issue of Early Music. He has uncovered a lot of biographical information about Murcia - which is quite different from the accepted one. In a nutshell - he was born in Madrid on 25th July 1673 and baptised on the 25th August in the parish church of St. Sebastian. His parents were Juan de Murcia and Magdalena Hernandez. He married a lady called Josefa Garcia in May 1695. He made a Declaration of poverty on 2nd July 1729 - a sort of will indicating that he had nothing much to bequeath, but he didn't die until 25th April 1739 in Madrid where he was buried free of charge in the cemetery adjoining the church of San Martin. There is a lot more fascinating detail than that so anyone interested in him should definitely read the article.

Yes - I thought that was the case and it is not really surprising. But it is a pity in a way because different people often have relevant information to contribute which might not otherwise be available. Still - I've have waited patiently for a year so a few more weeks wont hurt. Early Music for May hasn't yet appeared but is iminent.

Monica, as far as I know, Alejandro has been trying to get as much mileage as possible out of this. He has played his cards very close to his chest upun til now. My colleague in Chile, Oscar Ohlsen, was involved in the public presentation of the MS in Chile, but I have not pressed Oscar any further. I was very interested in offering him publication opportunities and went as far as setting up a meeting with him the last time I was in Chile (end of 2005), but he didn't show up for the appointment.

That must have been the Saldivar Codex. I don't think that the Chile Ms. has been made available generally yet. Does anyone know if it is possible to get a copy of it? Antonio did send me a copy of an article about it and I have the various newspaper reports. I am interested to know whether the movements which form suites which hadn't been identified are by Corbetta as Passacalles y obras includes music by him which isn't in any of his printed books.

[VIHUELA] Re: Santiago de Murcia
In the cover story in early music Alejandro Vera claims to have discoverd the hitherto unknown manuscript in Santiago de Chile during research conducted there in Sept. 2003/Aug. 2004. He explains that the ms. was found in a bookshop, whose owner had previously bought the possessions of a local bibliophile at an auction in 2001. In 2004 the ms. was bought by the Pontifica Universidad Católica de Chile and is currently located in the Biblioteca Campus Oriente (it has not yet been catalogued).

Dear Eloy Thanks very much for that! I couldn't find this picture on the El Mercurio site. Murcia is referred to as Don Santiago de Murcia in the Aprobacion de Don Antonio Literes in Resumen. Antonio has very kindly sent me a list of the contents from Vera's article. There are a large number of minuets and I wonder if he has had a chance to check the Ms. in the Biblioteca Nacional in Mexico - ms. 1560 which has a lot of minuets - and arrangements of Corelli's violin sonatas. It also includes some of the Passacalles from "Passacalles y obras". There is also a piece called "La Azucena". There is a piece with this title in the Saldivar cittern ms. All very tantalizing.
