Tristão Mariano da Costa
(Itu, 6 June 1846 - Itu, 6 April 1908)

Brazilian composer. Son of Franscisco Mariano da Costa and Maria Teresa do Monte Carmelo, he received early musical lessons from his brother-in-law, the composer and conductor Elias Álvares Lobo (1834-1901). Shortly after finished his studies, he successfully was accepted as a music teacher in Itu. In addition, he developed a political career as alderman in the legislatures of 1875-1879, 1883-1887 and 1892-1894. He regularly wrote in the local press about history, morals and religion, having participated in the founding of the Ituan newspaper 'A Federeção' in 1905. From 1872 onwards, when Father Miguel Correia Pacheco destined his actions of the Companhia Ituana de Estradas de Ferro to encourage the musical practice of the Igreja Matriz in Itu, he became its chapel master. As a composer, his musical output was influenced by his studies of 18th and early 19th century Ituano musicians, notably Jesuíno do Monte Carmelo and especially by Elias Álvares Lobo. His works showed a strong influence of Italian music, mainly by Rossini, with well-designed melodic lines, full of coloraturas and a strong emotional character, characteristics that are intertwined with the melodic and rhythmic qualities of Brazilian music, especially the modinha. His works were mainly religious; eight masses, a Te Deum and Matinas do Espírito Santo, Libera-me, Adoremus, Ecce Panis Angelorum, Asperge-me, Exaudi Domine, Jaculatória a São Benedito among others. In 1908, while he was preparing the Holy Week ceremonies he suddenly died in Itu. #ClassicalMusic
