Esteban Salas (Composer)

Born: 25th December 1725, Havana, Cuba

Died: 14th July 1803, Santiago de Cuba, Cuba

Nationality: Cuban

Esteban Salas y Castro was a Cuban composer of religious music. His compositions focused chiefly on vocal music, and are a fine representation of the late Baroque style. Although heavily influenced by French and Italian works of the period, his music is considered to incorporate an original Latin American component.

He became a teacher and head of music at the Chapel of Music at the cathedral of Santiago de Cuba from 1764. He also studied theology and canon law and was ordained a priest in Santiago de Cuba in 1790.
