Antonio de Literes (June 18, 1673 in Majorca - January 18, 1747 in Madrid, also known as Antonio Lliteres Carrio or Antonio Literes Carrión) was a Spanish composer of zarzuelas, a type of performance that mixes spoken word, song and dance. Unlike Romantic opera, which is dominated by strings, there are guitars, lutes and harpsichords in the orchestra. Literes played the bass viol for the royal choir in Madrid and was accounted the greatest composer at the Spanish court at the time.
