Singing the Camino Real de Tierra Adentro: Sacred Choral Repertoires and Historical Imagination in ¡Música del Corazón!

This article is part of a broader research project developed as a Richard E. Greenleaf Visiting Library Scholar at the Latin American & Iberian Institute, University of New Mexico. I extend my gratitude to the John Donald Robb Musical Trust and, in particular, to the members of the ¡Música del Corazón! Committee for their invitation to participate as co-curator in the 2024 edition. I would especially like to thank Ana Alonso-Minutti, Enrique Lamadrid, and José Antonio Gutiérrez Álvarez for their unwavering support throughout the long process of developing this project. My appreciation also goes to David Edmonds, Colleen and Art Sheinberg, as well as the members of the UNM Concert Chorus and Música Antigua de Albuquerque.
