ELIZAGA, Mariano (aylee'thahgah), Mexican musician, born in Morella, 27 September 1781 ; died in the City of Mexico, 2 October 1842. He was noted for precocious musical talent, and at the age of five years was called to the presence of the viceroy Galvez, who, pleased with the extraordinary facility of the child, gave orders for his education at the expense of the king. He was sent to the College of Infantes, where he made wonderful progress, and while yet a young man became an accomplished musician. He was the teacher of Catalina de Huarte, wife of the Emperor Iturbide, who appointed him master of the imperial chapel. After the fall of Iturbide he spent his life in teaching. His compositions include "E1 Miserere del Miercoles Santo," "Lamentaci6n," "Responsorio," and "Misa."
