Review

Born in Algemesí, he was an organist of the cathedral of Valencia for almost half a century, from very young to his death, and was ordained a priest in 1668.

He is considered the last great master of the Iberian organ school. His tients, battles and pasacalles, of great fantasy, were spread in handwritten copies throughout the peninsula.
