This concert explores Renaissance and Baroque Spanish and Portuguese traditions in dialogue with Latin American folk and popular music, highlighting the rich synthesis of African, Amerindian, and European influences.
Focusing on Nativity texts, the program features villancicos of tender devotion alongside exuberant choral works filled with rhythmic vitality. These pieces reflect centuries of cultural fusion, where European traditions intertwined with Indigenous and African voices to create something uniquely vibrant.
Festive and joyful in spirit, the music invites not only listening but participation—a chorus of praise and celebration that has echoed across centuries.
Music from the Coimbra and Trujillo manuscripts and others.
