Talk:Guatemala City Choirbooks

Comment
The choirbook is of some importance as it contains two fine unique Lamentations of Jeremiah settings. The copyright status of the Snow edition is such that scores can be copied without fee for performance purposes, so this is something people out there ought to know but where the info should be is debatable.

There is not much liturgical music from Central America available for performance, so there ought to be a link to this somewhere.

Rewrite and page move
I've rewritten this article to reflect the fact that there are/were actually at least 5 choirbooks (not simply the one which was published by Chicago University Press) and to focus the article on the books themselves rather than a random collection of information about various people and events connected to the old cathedral, material more appropriate to an article about the cathedral itself. I've added several new categories. The books don't contain native Guatemalan music and are only tangentially related to it. They are a collection of Spanish Renaissance music, some of whose composers actually lived in the New World for part of their lives, and others who never set foot there. I've also moved the page from Guatemala city choirbook to Guatemala City Choirbooks. The location referred to is Guatemala City; there was more than one choirbook; and Choirbooks was capitalized per Eton Choirbook, Caius Choirbook, etc. Voceditenore (talk) 15:10, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
