Mexico stretches more than two thousand miles from southeast to northwest, a vast arena of cultures and languages. The Rose Ensemble, University of St. Thomas Chamber Singers and the VocalEssence Ensemble Singers will combine their voices to explore Mexico’s music of ancient times, the Renaissance and today. Hear settings of traditional folk music along with music of today’s contemporary Mexican composers — sung in Spanish and in Mexico’s many indigenous languages.
