Life

Born: in Evora (Portugal) in 1585

Died: Puebla (México) in 1627]](?) Biography

By 1590 Fernandez was serving as both singer and instrumentalist in the capela of Évora Cathedral; in 1599 he was engaged, first as organist, then as maestro for the Cathedral of Guatemala (now Antigua). Seven years later he left Guatemala for Puebla, where he secured the position of maestro de capilla. There he remained active until his death in 1629(?). In his declining years he was assisted by Juan Gutierrez de Padilla. Fernandez may not have been a composer of the first rank, but what he did compose has charm and ingenuity. He left behind a considerable quantity of ethnic and dialect villancicos, some of them in the Amerindian dialects spoken in the region around Puebla.

He is also known by the Portuguese version of his name, Gaspar Fernandes.
