“highly engaging music, which mixed indigenous influences with those of the Spanish tradition of popular religious song…. A delightfully engaging, and thought-provoking programme” Robert Hugill, Planet Hugill Music
El Parnaso Hyspano
Hispanic Early Music Ensemble
Where Iberian and Latin American Sounds meet
A unique ensemble dedicated to Baroque and Classical Latin American Music, founded by an Indigenous singer. We celebrate the rich cultural influences in this music: Indigenous, African and European.
COMING NEXT - APRIL 19th
On 18-19 April, in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, as part of a Symposium on Post-colonial music? The survival of musical practices and sources in the 19th Latin American century (hosted by the Association for Arts and Culture of Bolivia -APAC), our founder Rafael Montero is giving a concert presentation with Bolivian Guitarist Harold Beizaga Tapia, of the songs of Pedro Ximénez Abril y Tirado for voice and guitar. This will include world premiere performances of some of these songs, which are planned to be given their first professional recordings by Rafael in 2025. Further details HERE
