In this vibrant program from the missions of Bolivia and Peru, Juilliard415 explores the intersections of global and local Baroque. In the mid-18th century, Jesuit missionaries brought Corelli, Vivaldi, Locatelli, and others to their new missions in Chiquitos, in southeastern Bolivia. Versions of these pieces survive today in the archives of the Chiquitanía, alongside anonymous sonatas and motets, some in the indigenous languages of the region.
