What’s on Great Sacred Music, Sunday, June 24, 2012

Music from the Mexican and Bolivian Baroque this week. Scholars are just
beginning to analyze and publish the music from the cathedral libraries
all over Latin America. It seems that the Spaniards imported entire
episcopal and arch-episcopal staffs including composers and performers
after they seized control of Central and South America. They built grand
cathedrals and demanded equally grand music to accompany the liturgies. We
shall sample music from that era this morning on Great Sacred Music.

Thank you for your support.
