Ginés de Boluda

Who was Ginés de Boluda?

Ginés de Boluda. Maestro de capilla at the Cathedral of Cádiz, then at Cuenca Cathedral and the Cathedral of Sigüenza and Cathedral of Toledo. A comparatively minor representative of the Golden Age of Spanish cathedral polyphony. All his extant works are liturgical. Boluda produced at least two In exitu Israel settings based on the tonus peregrinus, the popularity of which evidently eclipsed the composer by several generations. Boluda, with Navarro, is a Vespers composer par excellence, his output comprising almost exclusively psalm and Magnificat settings.
