520 _aMarcelo Adonay (1848-1928) was a major Philippine composer and church musician whose long and fruitful career sterched from the 1870s to the 1920s. As maestro de capilla of the San Agustin church in Intramuros, Manila, he presided over the musical establishment of the powerful Augustinian Order that required the performance of elaborate instrumental and choral works. The first of two volumes, this pioneering work includes five major essays on Adonay's life, his milieu, an inventory of his extant and missing works, and musical and formal analyses of his magnum opus, Pequeña Misa Solemne sobre Motivosde la Missa Regia de Canto Gregoriano. The centerpiece of the book is a modern edition of eleven reconstructed scores of his sacred music for various orchestral, vocal, and choral combinations. It is hoped that this publication will bring about the resurgence of performance of Philippine music from thenineteenth century and usher in a new appreciation of the artistic richness of this period of Philippine national history.
