Abstract

[Manuel de Tavares (c. 1585–1638), was a Portuguese composer, born in Portalegre, who accomplished his professional career as Chapel Master in several Spanish cathedrals, Baeza (1609–1612), Murcia (1612–1631), Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (1631–1638) and Cuenca (1638), left a legacy of 28 compositions. Almost a third of his surviving work is for the Holy Week, which includes various music-liturgical genres such as: Passion, Lesson, Improperia and Hymn. In this chapter, it is proposed to characterize this set of compositions and carry out a study of their characteristics according to the following parameters: description of sources, the musical contents and their normative framework; analysis of the macro-formal structure, counterpoint texture, types of writing, the use of the modality, metric punctuation and clauses, thematic and motive materials and the expressive relationship between text and music.]
