Lucie Skeaping talks to Ashley Solomon, the founder and director of Florilegium, about their recording project in South America.
The focus is on 17th Century vocal and instrumental music from the Jesuit missions in central Bolivia, including works by the Italian missionary Domenico Zipoli, and by the indigenous Bolivian people themselves. Accomplished, lively and flamboyant music, some of which is written in the local Chiquito language.
