A significant musical discovery from the Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos, Bolivia, has been meticulously documented and edited by Leonardo Waisman and collaborators. This collection, comprising nearly ninety compositions from the 18th century, represents a critical edition of one of two major archives resulting from Jesuit activity in South America. The music, preserved in the San Rafael mission, offers valuable insights into the cultural and religious practices of the Guarani people during this period. The research approach involved rigorous scholarly analysis, transcription, and critical editing, providing researchers and performers with an unprecedented resource for studying and performing this repertory. This work is particularly significant as it sheds light on the intellectual debates surrounding missionary aims, freedom, power, and religion in the 18th century.
