Capilla del Sol, an Argentine baroque ensemble, performs sacred and secular music from the colonial era composed for Jesuit missions in Latin America. Drawing on the work of musicologists who have helped bring this work to light, Capilla del Sol presents rarely heard music of the 17th and early 18th centuries for voice and instruments.

The group will also perform at the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage on Tuesday, March 9, at 6:00 p.m.
This concert is the first program in the series "Argentina at the Smithsonian 2010."
