Since 2002 Ashley Solomon and Florilegium have been involved in sharing a little-known archive of music in collaboration with Bolivian musicians, unveiling a programme of 17th- and 18th-century works that lay hidden away for two centuries after the Jesuit missions in Bolivia were closed around 1767. This concert launches their 2012 European tour, in which they are performing more sacred and secular works from the Moxos and Chiquitos archives as well as from La Plata.
