Juan Martín Ramos
(Los Corrales, 6 January 1709 - Los Corrales, 1789)

Spanish composer. In 1721 he was admitted as choirboy at the Cathedral of Salamanca where he received music lessons from Antonio de Yanguas. From 1724 he was under the supervision of Juan Francés de Iribarren, organist there. It was precisely Martín Ramos who succeeded his teacher Iribarren as first organist during a time he unsuccessfully applied for the positions of chapel master at the cathedrals of Zamora and Santiago de Compostela. In 1754, a few months after Master Yanguas death, he won the official post of chapel master at the Cathedral of Salamanca in a post he held the rest of his life. He also spent whole of his life in Salamanca almost with no traveling anywhere and composing at least 700 works, most of them sacred music.
