Veiga was a prodigious musician and a key figure in the Galician Rexurdimento, a cultural and political movement that sought to revive Galician language and culture. He served as the organist of the Church of Santo Domingo de Betanzos and the Collegiate Church of La Coruña. Additionally, he was a professor at the National Conservatory of Madrid, contributing significantly to the field of music education.
In 2014, a bust dedicated to Veiga's memory was inaugurated, and an auditorium in his hometown of Mondoñedo was named in his honor. His remains rest in the old cemetery of Mondoñedo, under a monument and tomb. The inscription on the monument reads: "Homage to Pascual Veiga, author of the Alborada". The monument was funded by the Galician diaspora in Buenos Aires, a testament to Veiga's far-reaching influence.
