The Second International Festival of Mexican Viceregal Music is a chance to hear the encounter between the sacred music of Spanish conquistadors and festive, traditional indigenous rhythms.
From Friday, August 1 to Sunday, August 10, six groups specializing in Mexico’s old music will bring their traditional sound to Guadalajara and Tlajomulco churches.

Here are a few of the concerts (all are free and open to the public):


Capella Antiqua (from Guadalajara) plays Saturday, August 2, 8:30 p.m., at the Capilla Tolsa Cabañas (downtown in the Instituto Cultural Cabañas)
