Mateo Albéniz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mateo Albéniz, also known as Mateo Antonio Pérez de Albéniz (1755 – 23 June 1831)—no relation to the better known composer Isaac Albéniz—was a Spanish composer and priest.[1] He held a post as Maestro de Capilla in San Sebastián and in Logroño from 1795 to 1800, when he returned to San Sebastián until his retirement in 1829.[2]
Albéniz wrote chiefly for the harpsichord and fortepiano. The work by which he is best known today is the Sonata in D major, of which a popular transcription for guitar has been made.
