Abstract

The journal La Alhambra, Revista de Artes y Letras, (1884-1885, 1898-1924) contains a considerable number of contributions on music, due to the interest, personality and family tradition of its director, Francisco de Paula Valladar (1852-1924). He himself wrote most of the musical references, but there was also a long list of collaborators who also contributed. The present study explores the contributions made by José María Varela Silvari (1848-1926), a composer, pianist, conductor and musical specialist; these cover a wide range of topics related to music, and help to stimulate the presence of music in the cultural context of towns like Granada.
