Blasco de Nebra was born, and died, in Seville. His family was well established in Spanish musical life; his father, for example, was made organist of Seville Cathedral in 1735 and his uncle José Nebra (1702-1768), was a Madrid-based composer and organist whose pupils included Antonio Soler. He soon acquired a considerable contemporary reputation as a performer on the organ and the harpsichord, as well as on the developing piano. He was also said to have remarkable abilities as a sight-reader of complex scores. In 1768 he was made assistant organist to his father and in 1778 he was created titular organist at the Cathedral. There seems to be no available information as to the cause of his early death. Until relatively recently only a few compositions were known, but recent decades have seen the rediscovery of more works in Spanish monastic libraries. There may be more yet to be found.
