Baroque in… Bolivia?

Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, October 24, 2021 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart

Bolivia is not considered a hotbed of Baroque music by most, but perhaps it should be. To this day in eastern Bolivia, lutes and harpsichords can be found in small villages, and people play music from the 18th and 19th centuries. This is a legacy of the Jesuit missionaries who brought European music to the area generations ago. This week we'll hear a representative Bolivian composition from the 18th century. We've also got favorites by Bach including a Brandenburg and an orchestra suite.
