description
Juan Bautista Comes (Valencia, 1582-1643) was among the most significant composers of the early Spanish Baroque, whose life and music makes him a transitional figure between late-Renaissance style and the emerging techniques and tastes of the Baroque. He spent most of his life working in the city of his birth, Valencia, as a church musician and musical director at Corpus Christi School and Chapel (known as El Patriarca) and the Metropolitan Cathedral, as chapel master.OOver two hundred compositions survive, among them a 40-part Gloria and the 17-part Dixit Dominus for which he is now best known. In much of his work he transformed sacred texts into the more popular idiom of villancicos. These alternate bouncy, folk-like sections with more sober material in an unusual three-part structure.
