Antonio de Cabezón
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antonio de Cabezón (1510 – March 26, 1566) was a Spanish composer and organist of the Renaissance. He was blind from early childhood.
He is best known for his Tientos—short, intense, liturgical and polyphonic works for organ.
Many of his compositions have survived and are still readily accessible today, in sheet music and recorded form. He produced some of the earliest extant music for solo organ.
