Caminos Barrocos: Le Final des Chemins du Baroque (2012)

Twenty-five years ago, Pathways of Baroque (Les Chemins du Baroque) tiptoed in the footsteps of missionaries, Jesuits lost in oblivion, bringing scores, instruments and musical practices to South America. This is the final project from an association that revived and spread knowledge of these indigenous musicians, who now fully own their colonial heritage. This sensitive sober film, with musical direction by Gabriel Garrido who has done much to revive music from the Americas, depicts repertoire that celebrates the fusion of the scholarly and popular.
