A señores los de buen gusto by Ignacio Quispe — Lyrics
Ah, señores, los del buen gusto,
háganse, por vida mía
a mis tonos.
Oiganme una tonadilla
con que celebrar intento
a un cordero de aquí
que el sol brilla.
Oigan, miren, escuchen, atiendan:
Esto sí es morir de risa!

About A señores los de buen gusto
Ignacio Quispe’s A señores los de buen gusto invites listeners to appreciate its musical charms. The text opens with a lively invitation to those of refined taste to attend to the composer’s tuneful offering, a brief song composed to celebrate a local figure. The words express delight and wonder at the subject’s radiance, comparing them to the sun. The piece, written for a mixed ensemble of SSAT and SATB voices, offers a secular Spanish text that revels in playful admiration and the captivating power of love’s arrows.
The latter part of the text speaks of divine words and the speaker’s captivated heart. This selection is a testament to the composer’s skill in setting spirited Spanish verse for a substantial vocal combination.
