The Music Collection (Ancient Holdings) of the University of Barcelona Library

The Music Collection (Ancient Holdings) of the University of Barcelona Library

Abstract

The library of the University of Barcelona houses an interesting collection of music to which little attention has been paid. With documentary collections from the ecclesiastical confiscation of the nineteenth century, it brings together all kinds of works, most of which come from Barcelonian convent libraries that have now disappeared, especially rich in those of the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries. Represented here are manuscripts (from the medieval period) and printed editions of all kinds (from incunabula to numerous examples from the nineteenth century), bringing together an excellent collection of treatises on music theory, as well as some examples of opera librettos. The library holds one of the best collections in the world of printed texts of villancicos and oratorios, which together with many compositions in music notation, make the group one of the best on the Hispanic scene. The present article focuses on the description of the theoretical-musical treatises.

[ES] La biblioteca de la Universidad de Barcelona alberga una interesante colección de música a la que se ha prestado poca atención. Con fondos documentales de la desamortización eclesiástica del siglo XIX, reúne todo tipo de obras, la mayoría procedentes de bibliotecas conventuales barcelonesas hoy desaparecidas, especialmente ricas en las de los siglos XVI al XIX. Aquí están representados manuscritos (de la época medieval) y ediciones impresas de todo tipo (desde incunables hasta numerosos ejemplares del siglo XIX), reuniendo una excelente colección de tratados de teoría musical, así como algunos ejemplos de libretos de ópera. La biblioteca atesora una de las mejores colecciones del mundo de textos impresos de villancicos y oratorios, que junto a numerosas composiciones en notación musical, hacen del grupo uno de los mejores del panorama hispano. El presente artículo se centra en la descripción de los tratados teórico-musicales.
