Abstract
La tesis “Mariano Rodríguez de Ledesma (1779-1847): vida y obra de un músico del Romanticismo”, presenta las investigaciones y estudios realizados en los últimos 25 años sobre el músico romántico español nacido en 1779 en Zaragoza como Mariano Nicasio Ledesma y muerto en Madrid en 1847 como Mariano Rodríguez de Ledesma, uno de los músicos más importantes de este período, si no el que más.Anteriormente, aparte de algunos breves artículos publicados en revistas musicales del XIX y las clásicas voces de diccionarios que repetían, con mayor o menor acierto, lo escrito en aquellos artículos, solamente se había editado un libro en 1909 en Málaga, escrito por el compositor y musicólogo Rafael Mitjana (1869-1921), que, si bien ampliaba la biografía con nuevas aportaciones realizadas por él, principalmente se dedicaba al estudio y análisis de las Lamentaciones del Miércoles, Jueves y Viernes Santo. En la tesis que aquí se presenta, gracias a la consulta de una gran cantidad de documentación inédita, se ha podido actualizar la biografía de Rodríguez de Ledesma con luz nueva y solventar las numerosas dudas y errores transmitidos por la historiografía precedente. Al mismo tiempo se ha tratado de establecer la conexión existente entre su vida y obra, la relación que esta última tiene con la de sus contemporáneos, españoles y europeos, y como todo ello está insertado en su contexto histórico, tanto musical como social...
This PhD thesis, entitled “Mariano Rodríguez de Ledesma (1779-1847): Life and Works of a Musician of the Romantic Period”, presents research and studies concerning this Spanish romantic musician, born in 1779 in Zaragoza as Mariano Nicasio de Ledesma, and who died in Madrid in 1847 as Mariano Rodríguez de Ledesma. He was one of the leading, perhaps the most important, of the musicians of this period. Apart from a few brief articles published in XIX century music magazines, and apart from the usual entries in dictionaries somehow echoing the contents of such articles, only one book about the musician was ever published. Written by Rafael Mitjiana (1869-1921), composer and musicologist, the book expanded the biography with new contributions, mainly concentrating on the study and analysis of the Lamentations for Wednesday, Thursday and Good Friday (Lamentaciones del Miércoles, Jueves y Viernes Santo). This thesis, by consulting and using a great amount of so far unpublished documentation, updates Rodríguez de Ledesma´s biography from a new angle, sorting out the many doubts and errors transmitted through previous historiography. At the same time, this thesis focuses on establishing the connections between life and works, the relationships between his works and those of other European and Spanish contemporaries, always within the framework of historical context, both social and musical...
