Copyright free Advent Music [Spanish]
  • I'm compiling a bunch of music for my parish to offer them more music choices and possibly move out of the Flor Y Canto and the OneLicense world. So I'm trying my best to gather music that is copyright free. If you guys have any ideas or lead for more copyright free music I'd love to have a look at it and add it to this collection. I plan to find or create harmonizations a well in the future.

    Resources that I've used to find traditional, unknown, and free from copyright music so far are Zipoli Institute, ¡Canta La Misa!, Floy Y Canto (who also use some no copyright music), and pdhymns.com, and hymnary.com.

    Gregorian Chants
    I plan to add gregorian chants in another section, but might include vernacular translations of Alma Redemptoris Mater, Rorate Caeli, and if I can find one, for Veni, Veni, Emmanuel.

    Ven, Jesús Muy Esperado - STUTTGART
    one that I'm unsure of is "Ven, Jesús Muy Esperado" to the tune of STUTTGART. It is on pdhymns (to the HYFRYDOL tune), but on the hymnary website is also states that there is copyright on it. I've included it for now, but would love to know if anyone has definitive answers to this.

    Ten Piedad, Oh Padre Santo
    I've written a tune for this. If anyone has any thoughts on this I'd be happy to hear them.

    Thank you in advance and Glory be to God,
    Luis Chavez

    Jacques Perrière's website https://www.verbumgloriae.es/ has texts in Spanish, and the rhythm might be close enough to Latin for the given translations to be used.
