Description: A collection of sacred and secular works by the chapel master of Segovia Cathedral from 1759 sheds light on the progress of early Classicism in Castile: from simplicity in the tonos to a moderate theatricality in the arias, all of which are accompanied by two violins, cello and organ while the six-voice mass, written in 1757 for the smaller forces of Montón's previous post, is accompanied only by cello and organ. Spanish-English texts. Capilla Jerónimo de Carrión; Alicia Lázaro.
