José Marín (ca. 1619–1699) was a Spanish Baroque harpist, guitarist and composer noted for his secular songs, tonos humanos. In 1644 he entered the Royal Convent of La Encarnación in Madrid as a tenor. He was a priest and cantor of the capilla real under Felipe IV and Carlos II. His career was marked by scandals and murder. He was sentenced to prison but escaped to regain respectability. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Jos%C3%A9+Mar%C3%ADn">Read more on Last.fm</a>
