Crossing Borders explores a crucial moment in the musical history of the New World, when European musical traditions began to mingle with indigenous musical practices. This festive program includes villancicos and romances for voices and ensemble plus instrumental works drawn from the rich repertoire of 17th- and 18th-century colonial and Latin American cultures. Musical selections by Juan del Encina, Joseph Pérez, José Durán, Sebastián Durón, Antonio de Salazar, Juan de Araujo, Manuel Joseph Quiroz and others illustrate the multiple and creative ways that music traverses cultural and national borders. Ars Lyrica Houston features several instrumentalists and soprano Camille Ortiz and mezzo-soprano Cecilia Duarte.
