II Festival de Música Barroca "Misiones de Chiquitos" Vol. 1

American early music is the U.S. branch of the post‑war early‑music revival devoted to the historically informed performance of Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque repertoires (roughly c. 1100–1750). It centers on period instruments, historically appropriate tunings and temperaments, small ensemble forces, and style‑specific articulation, ornamentation, and rhetoric. Although the repertory largely originates in Europe, American early music also embraces colonial and mission‑era sources from North and Latin America, and it is shaped by U.S. institutions, festivals, ensembles, university programs, and instrument builders that took root from the mid‑20th century onward.
