Шаблон:Use Canadian English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Charles-Amador Martin (7 March 1648 – 19 June 1711) was a priest, singer and composer of sacred music in New France. He was the second priest to be ordained in what is now Canada,[1][2] the first being Germain Morin. He spent most of his priesthood in or near Quebec City, where he became known for his participation in church services as a musician.
Early life
Martin was born in Quebec, the son of Abraham Martin, a river pilot in New France, and Marguerite Langlois.[1][3] He attended Jesuit College and trained as a priest at the Séminaire de Québec at a young age.[4][5]
Career
Martin was ordained by Bishop Laval in March 1671. His first posting was at Beauport in 1672.[6]
Martin assisted with elections at the Hôtel-Dieu de Québec in 1673. He was a member of the Seminary of Foreign Missions at Quebec,[1][7] where he taught for a number of years and also acted as bursar for a period. His singing ability is mentioned by Father Jérôme Lalemant at one point in his career.
He was later a Canon of the Quebec Cathedral,[1] where he was commissioned by Bishop François de Laval to raise the musical quality of the religious ceremonies.[8]
A number of musical compositions that have been attributed to Father Martin, including the first preserved Canadian musical composition, "Prose de Sacrae Familliae"; research has not found conclusive evidence that he is the composer.[9][10]
