Inocencio Haedo Ganza, director y compositorestudio, catalogación y análisis de su obra

Abstract

If we speak about the musical life in the city of Zamora in the first half of the 20th Century, an obligatory reference is Inocencio Haedo Ganza (Santander 1878-Zamora 1956). Performer, conductor of several ensembles and composer, he left us a legacy that is worthy to recover, a work in which this doctoral dissertation is centered. Before studying his work, we contextualize it, in the first place by studying of the composer's biography, starting with his father, whose music career represented, in a way, a model to Haedo. In our contextualization we also present the history of the main music ensembles created by the musician: Banda Provincial de Zamora, Orfeón El Duero and Coral Zamora. After carrying out this general contextualization, we center us in the work itself, first by cataloging all the author's known works and arrangements.Subsequently, we analyse each original work for wind ensemble and for choir, including an individual contextualization of each composition and, in case of pieces recorded by Haedo himself conducting his Coral Zamora, a performative analysis. All of that leads us to a number of conclusions that allow us to define the style of this author's work and the circumstances in which it was created and performed, thus contributing to bring attention to a person who was one of the most important musicians in Zamora during the first half of the 20th Century
