Abstract
Religious music in Cuba is a subject in which there are still pages to write, especially the region of Havana in the nineteenth century. So far there are monographic studies on composers and masters of chapels in the cathedrals of Santiago de Cuba and Havana, as in the case of Esteban Salas, Cayetano Pagueras, Juan París and Cratilio Guerra by musicologists Miriam Escudero, Claudia Fallarero and Franchesca Perdigón. However, it remains to write and recreate the religious music of Havana, not only in relation to the cathedral but also to the rest of the churches of the capital that make up the religious music scene of the time. This is why in this article I propose to approach the most important religious sociomusical characteristics of colonial Havana in the second half of the nineteenth century
