Cantos y Bayles

Ensemble Suspirium goes to Latin America! In this programme, we bring extremely grooving and rhythmical songs from the Jesuit missions. Music is based on Italian baroque, but highly influenced by native American tribes from different regions. Completed with numerous percussion instruments, this programme invites the listener into the exciting world of Latin American baroque music. From love songs and drinking songs to songs for devotion and religious processions.. but never without a groove!

Our favourite Latin American songs include music from Spain, Bolivia, Peru and Paraguay.
