Eduardo Caba (1890 in Potosi, Bolivia – 1953 in La Paz, Bolivia) was a Bolivian nationalist composer, a pianist and a music professor. He spent the most part of his professional life in Buenos Aires and his last ten years in La Paz.

Biography

His parents were "Dr. Gregorio Caba, a distinguished Bolivian doctor, and Adelina Balsalia, an Italian lady of high culture and with a fine musical spirit". According to Salas and Pauletto (1938), Eduardo Caba's mother was his first music teacher.Шаблон:Page needed

In 1926, he moved to Buenos Aires and completed his higher studies in harmony.Шаблон:Page needed There he attended the classes of the Argentinean composer Felipe Boero. In 1927, he obtained a scholarship by the Bolivian government allowing him to improve his skills in Madrid where he was the alumnus of Joaquín Turina and of Pérez Casas.Шаблон:Page needed However, the Bolivian government withdrew its commitment and Caba was forced to give up his studies.Шаблон:Page needed Shortly later, Caba returned to Buenos Aires and integrated into Argentinean society, where he made good friends.Шаблон:Page needed His reputation grew, and his works were played at the Teatro Colón. In 1942, Caba moved from Buenos Aires to his home country after being appointed director of the National Conservatory of Music of La Paz. He also lived for two years in Montevideo with his family.

From the outset of his career Caba won the praise of the renowned Spanish musicologist Adolfo Salazar, as Salas and Pauletto underscores, citing Salazar's comments in his book Música y músicos de hoy (1928) as well as his articles in the Spanish journal El Sol.Шаблон:Page needed

His compositions were interpreted at the La Revue musicale in Paris by the pianist Ricardo Viñes, one of the most active promoters of Caba's works, and the French composer and founder of the Revue, Henry Prunières, considered Caba as one of the most important representatives of values in Latin America.Шаблон:Page needed Ninon Vallin, the French soprano who often stayed in Buenos Aires and was present at twenty seasons of the Teatro Colón, has also interpreted Caba's works. Other promoters of the music of Caba include Beatriz Balzi and Mariana Alandia.

Style

The musicologists Salas and Pauletto consider Caba as an "intuitive composer with the vernacular motives of his homeland".Шаблон:Page needed The vernacular aspects are probably the most characteristic of Caba's musical language.

But the intuitive character of Caba's work is probably the most interesting, and it is interesting to understand the origin of this "intuition". Salas and Pauletto, who knew personally Eduardo Caba, explain it in the following way: Шаблон:Quote

A representative example of Caba's music is his dance Kollavina, recently interpreted by the Bolivian guitarist Marcos Puña, and presented in the book of the two aforementioned musicologists.

Private life

Eduardo Caba married María del Carmen Huergo in Buenos Aires and had two sons, Gregorio et María Adelia.
