| Sumario: | [EN] WOMEN COMPOSERS IN 17TH-CENTURY SPAIN: THE MUSIC SCHOOL OF THE ORGANIST DIEGO GALINDO IN PAMPLONA Abstract: This article presents new perspectives on the music education of girls and young women who wanted to become nun musicians in 17th-century Spanish convents, revealing that they studied for several years not only plainchant, polyphonic singing and playing instruments such as the harp, the organ and the bajón, but also music composition at an advanced level, this last aspect almost unknown until now. The music school of the organist of Pamplona Cathedral Diego Galindo (ca. 1599-1664) is analyzed as a case study, owing to its relevance for the education of a large number of female students; information on another music school directed by Juan López de Urra, organist of the parish church of San Nicolás in the same city, is also provided. The research is based on eight unpublished lawsuits preserved at the Archivo Real y General de Navarra and the Archivo Diocesano de Pamplona. The study suggests that nun composers were not unusual in Early Modern peninsular Spain and invites to critically revisit their absence in most of the previous historiography. The contribution has three sections on music theory and historiographical aspects, women in the music school of Diego Galindo and the relevance of the composition skills to become a nun musician. Three final appendices provide abstracts of the eight analyzed lawsuits and information on forty four female students and twenty six male students documented as disciples of Galindo. |
