During the baroque era there was a rich musical scene in many places around the world, including in what we now call Mexico. It included composers born in so-called “New Spain” and others born in Europe who made the leap of faith to go to Mexico to practice their craft. You’ll hear music by a few of those who lived and worked in “New Spain” during the 17th and 18th centuries. It’s on Sunday Baroque this weekend.
