Ex Cathedra presents "New World Symphonies: Baroque Music from Latin America," a captivating journey through the rich choral traditions of Latin America's Baroque period. Released on April 1, 2003, under the Hyperion label, this album spans a little over an hour and nine minutes, offering a diverse collection of sacred and secular works that showcase the unique cultural fusion of European Baroque music with indigenous influences.
The ensemble, known for their impeccable vocal precision and expressive performances, delves into a repertoire that includes sacred masses, motets, and traditional songs. Highlights such as "Hanacpachap cussicuinin," a well-known Peruvian hymn, and "Xicochi conetzintle," a Mexican Christmas carol, illustrate the vibrant interplay between European and indigenous musical elements. The album also features works like "Missa Ego flos campi" and "Missa San Ignacio," which exemplify the grandeur and complexity of Latin American Baroque choral music.
Ex Cathedra's interpretation brings to life the intricate polyphony and rhythmic vitality of these pieces, providing a window into a lesser-known but equally compelling chapter of Baroque music history. Whether you're a seasoned choral music enthusiast or a curious newcomer, this album offers a rich and rewarding listening experience.
