From the Old World to the New: Choral music of Tomás Luis de Victoria and Juan de Lienas

The pairing of works by these two composers explores the assimilation of Western musical tradition by indigenous peoples in the New World.

Tomás Luis de Victoria was the preeminent Spanish composer in the Renaissance style and his Requiem à 6 was the crowning achievement of his work. While Juan de Lienas lived in the Baroque era, his compositions also adhered to the Renaissance style. The pairing of works by these two composers explores the assimilation of Western musical tradition by indigenous peoples in the New World.
