He also composed aguinaldos, hymns, danzones and sacred music.[2] He did not possess a lot of formal education, yet had a natural talent for music.[3]Professional career[edit]Rios Ovalle was one of the few confidants of Juan Morel Campos, among whom was also musician Cosme Tizol. While not possessing the professional stature or scale of Morel Campos, he was nevertheless considered the unquestionable successor to him, in particular when it came to danzas.  Some experts believe that had Rios Ovalle been exposed to greater music education, it is possible he would have climbed much higher yet in his impact as a musician and composer.[4]Composer[edit]He created over 50 musical compositions.[5] His danzas are characterized by their high lyrical character. Upon the untimely death of master Morel Campos in 1896, R\u00edos Ovalle succeeded him as the most prolific representative of Ponce’s danza tradition.[6] He authored various well known compositions, including “Angelina”, “Teresa”, “Rain of pearls”, “Odalisque” and “La Graciosita”.[7]Musicican[edit]R\u00edos Ovalle fine tuned his musical skills in the Juan Morel Campos’s Orchestra, where he played first clarinet. His name became well known in Puerto Rico as well as among musicians and composers internationally.[8]Orchestra director[edit]In addition to his clarinet and composer skills, he was an outstanding orchestra director.[9] His danzas are arrhythmic and his Orchestra used the g\u00fciro as the only percussion instrument.[10]Recordings[edit]He recorded with RCA Victor Records in 1917 and 1921. Some of his recording were with the Paco Tizol Orchestra.[11]Delicias sextet[edit]For many years Rios Ovalle has a sextet that performed at the famed Teatro Fox Delicias. Its job was to provide a musical background for the soundless movies of the early 20th century played there. His sextet would have a preview of the soundless movie prior to its premiere showing and they would practice for hours several nights before the movie’s opening night.  Renown pianist Antonia “To\u00f1ita” Pr\u00edncipe (“the Princess of the keyboard”) would provide coverage in the piano. In addition to soundless movies, Rios Ovalle sextet also interpreted arias for local operas voices including Aida, Lucia y Casta Susana.[12]Compositions[edit]The following is a list of some of Rios Ovalle’s danzas:[13]AngelinaTeresaLluvia de Perlas (Rain of Pearls)OdaliscaLa Graciosita (The Little Funny One)Later years[edit]He died on 14 September 1927[citation needed] in Ponce, Puerto Rico.See also[edit]^ In this Spanish name, the first or paternal surname is  R\u00edos and the second or maternal family name is  Ovalle.References[edit]External links[edit]     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/juan-rios-ovalle-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Juan R\u00edos Ovalle – Wikipedia"}}]}]
