- Summary:
- Spanish colonies in Central and South America emerged as wellsprings of cultural activity throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The meeting of indigenous populations with Latin American cathedrals and courtly life resulted in styles bearing the imprint of folk music, even in sacred compositions. The sophisticated musical culture of Guatemala City Cathedral is represented in an archive of hundreds of works, several of which are recorded here. The guitars, harp, voices, and percussion of acclaimed ensemble El Mundo bring to life the vibrant and at times hypnotic dance rhythms of Spain, Africa, and the New World, creating a sound unique to this region, and one that still flourishes to this day.
