Matins of the Virgin of Guadalupe,1764
Ignacio de Jerusalem (1707-1769)
On 9 December 1531 the Indian neophyte Juan Diego was lured to mount Tepeyac by the sound of stunning music. He made his way to the top, where the Virgin of Guadalupe appeared to him in radiant splendor. In 1764, Ignacio de Jerusalem, chapel master of Mexico City Cathedral, composed his matins for the Virgin of Guadalupe. In 1997, this work, which had not been heard for almost two centuries , was performed and recorded by Chanticleer.
