Juan or Joan

Um, the discrepancy between the article name (Joan Bautista Cabanilles) and the lead (Juan) bears some explaining. Joan is the Catelan form, but Valencia is a border region: its liturgy uses the Roman passion tones, rather than those of Toledo or Saragossa. Valencian seems to be very close to Catalan, but Grove, Oxford and Baker all prefer Juan, without definitely stating he or his contemporaries used one or the other...

Feel free to discuss further (I'm curious to know what context the spellings in NG were used), but I'm now moving the page per most common English name.

About the authorship of the composition "Batalla Imperial"

There is some controversy about the authorship, as it is also attributed to Johan Caspar Kerll

About the meaning of the composition "Batalla Imperial"

está intentando representar la música de los tercios, se pueden distinguir los atambores y los pífanos (discretinator)

but, why a german composer would include call tones from the spanish tercios in his work? (jcrr2012)

Hello jcrr2012, I am curious about "call tones from the spanish tercios". Where have you heard about them, were they ever written down? Anyway, it's not surprising that Kerll would have heard them, since he worked for the Archduke Leopold who was governor of the Spanish Netherlands, and spent some time in Brussels in his service. (MrNclee)

Hello MrNclee, in fact I have no notice of those call tones having been written. However, the background melody that you can hear at the beginning (maybe until 1:39) seem to represent roughly very characteristic instruments that were present at that moment. Maybe the composer wanted to represent different military units at different distances and because of that the scale of the melody is changing through the composition. Of course is a personal impression. You can know more about spanish army call tones watching this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcBpv5reg5s And here the recording to what I am referring to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6bvrjAF00o (abuelaliu) --Abuelaliu (talk) 12:50, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
