Description
Summary:In the first documentary testimonies of the Spanish cathedrals, the participation of groups of children in the internal organization and in the cult is verified. In the same way, his performances went beyond the service at masses, also participating in the liturgy of the choir and altar, where music was of capital importance. However, from the 15th century, the changes introduced in the music that was performed in these religious centers forced the progressive professionalization of these singing children, giving rise to a group of choir boys or “seises”, whose main mission was to interpret the first and second voices of polyphonic music. In this work, we present the development and protagonists of this group of singers in the Accitan headquarters in the 16th-17th centuries, analyzing the cathedral as a space for training and promotion for many of them, since it came from marginalized social strata., En los primeros testimonios documentales de las catedrales españolas se constata la participación de grupos de niños en la organización interna y en el culto. De la misma manera, sus actuaciones iban más allá del servicio en las misas, participando igualmente en la liturgia y paraliturgia del coro, donde la música tenía una importancia capital. No obstante, a partir del siglo xv, los cambios introducidos en la música que se interpretaba en estos centros religiosos obligaron a la progresiva profesionalización de estos niños cantores, dando lugar a un grupo de mozos de coro o seises, cuya misión principal fue la de interpretar la primera y segunda voz de la música polifónica. En este trabajo damos a conocer el desarrollo y los protagonistas de este grupo de cantores en la sede accitana en los siglos xvi-xvii, analizando la catedral como un espacio de aprendizaje y promoción; ya que muchos de ellos provenían de estratos sociales marginados.
