El Anfión matritense
-
With the subtitle Philharmonic-poetic newspaper of the Musical Association, to which was later added the qualification of picturesque, it was published four times a month during the first semester of 1843. Its proprietary editor, who appears as administrative director, is Juan Manini, director of the Asociación Musical El Panorama Español, in whose printing house it was printed. Indalecio Soriano Fuertes would be its musical director and Miguel Agustín Príncipe its literary director, who would also be the main editors. A carefully printed newspaper devoted entirely to the art of music, it includes articles on theory, instruments, techniques, methods, advances and musical and solfeggio history, being the first publication to pay attention to the guitar. It also publishes biographical notes on artists and two sections of chronicles, one national and the other foreign, with news and chronicles of performances, musical concerts and lyrical companies. In addition to some commercials and an engraving in its number 12, it gives space to the poetic compositions of authors such as Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda, Ángela Grassi, Carolina Coronado, Josefa Moreno y Nartos and Robustiana Armiño de Cuesta. Antonio Alcalá Galiano, Pedro Mata and Joaquín Gaztambide, among others, also collaborate. With eight pages per issue and continuous pagination, it also offered two half-yearly issues of three plates each.
