Customer Reviews

As Spain encountered economic and political crises in the 17th century, the imagery of musical performance was invoked by the state to represent the power of the monarch and to denote harmony throughout the kingdom. Gonzalez demonstrates that the success of this scheme lies in the long history of Western cultural usage of musical iconography, in which musical symbols were allied to good governance.
