Also extant are a few of Cañizares' non-dramatic works, most notably a collection of lyrics for villancicos de Navidad (Christmas carols) commissioned by the Royal Chapel of Madrid, and two examples of Gongorine-style funereal prose in honor of the Dauphin of France, father of Felipe V.
He composed many motets, tonos humanos and villancicos, present in the songbook El libro de tonos humanos (1655) and in the cathedral of Valladolid.
