Mazuela-Anguita

This book presents the first study of music in convent life in a single Hispanic city, Barcelona, during the early modern era. It explores how convents were involved in the musical networks operating in sixteenth-century Barcelona and reveals the intrinsic role played by nuns and lay women in the city’s urban musical culture.

Ascensión Mazuela-Anguita is Associate Professor of Music at the University of Granada, Spain.
