Gaspar Sanz was a 17th century Spanish guitarist, composer, and priest who studied music in Italy under several teachers. Upon returning to Spain, he published his influential guitar method book "Instrucción de música sobre la guitarra española" as well as two literary works. His method book comprised three books and contained over 90 pieces for a 5-course guitar, mostly based on popular Spanish dance forms of the time. It included instructions on playing techniques and figured bass accompaniment, with pieces of increasing difficulty through the books. Sanz's work was very popular and initiated similar guitar method books by other composers.

(b Calanda, Aragon, mid-17th century; d early 18th century).
Spanish guitarist, composer and priest. Early in his life he received a Bachelor of Theology degree from the University of Salamanca and later travelled to Italy, where he studied music under Cristoforo Caresana and Lelio Colista, and possibly also under Orazio Benevoli and Pietro Andrea Ziani. On returning to Spain he published not only his Instruccin de msica sobre la guitarra espaola but also two literary works: a Spanish translation of Daniello Bartoli's L'uomo de lettere (Madrid, 1678) and a eulogy in praise of Pope Innocent XI entitled Ecos sagrados (Madrid, 1681). Sanz's Instruccin de msica is the most comprehensive guitar treatise of its time. Comprising three books, it contains 90 pieces written for a five-course instrument tuned a/ad'/d'g/gb/be', the majority of which are based on dance forms, such as the fola, canario and espaoleta, typical of the late 17th-century Spanish Baroque style. The first book includes a detailed introductory tutor with instructions for stringing, fretting and tuning and an explanation of both the rasgueado (strummed) and punteado (plucked) styles; it also contains a long essay on figured bass accompaniment for the guitar. While many of its pieces are intended for beginners, those in the second and third books are longer, broader in scope and more technically demanding. Sanz's work was very popular in Spain and initiated a series of similar works, such as those of Ruiz de Ribayaz, Guerau and Santiago de Murcia. Various pieces from it and parts of the text appear in six publications and manuscripts, French as well as Spanish, up to 1763. WORKS Editions: Gaspar Sanz, ed. R. de Zayas (Madrid, 1985)
