Leonardo García-Alarcón sets the tent on fire with Iberian polyphony from Latin-Amerika
Na the conquest of the Americas exported Spanish and Portuguese clergy their polyphony to distant places. Composers like Juan de Araujo and Tomás de Torrejón y Velasco settled in Peru and Argentina, where they let themselves be seduced by new rhythms and melodious languages. Leonardo García-Alarcón and Cappella Mediterranea collected the most irresistible showpieces from Latin American archives for this high mass of religious but quite spicy music!
