Helicon is pleased to welcome back the renowned Baroque guitarist, Richard Savino and his ensemble, El Mundo. Composed of singers, strings, and plucked instruments, El Mundo specializes in the rich, sensual music of 16th - 19th century Italy, Spain and Latin America. Their Helicon performance features mezzo-soprano, Jennifer Lane. Throughout the Baroque period music flourished in the Spanish colonial territories, yet little of this fascinating repertory is known today. This music truly crosses cultural borders by blending European styles with native rhythms and dances. Richard has created a program of new musical discoveries including Yuletide music from Mexico, Guatemala, Peru and Argentina, and sacred Hebraic psalms by Solomon Rossi.
“El Mundo’s program was a joyful tour. . . this ensemble was stupendous!” - San Francisco Classical Voice
