Description
A rare baroque opera written by an Indigenous man and hidden for centuries in a church in the Bolivian Amazon comes to life with a staging in Besiro, its original and now endangered dialect. "It's nice to be able to revive something I've never seen before," says 18-year-old opera soloist Yhorgina Algaranaz, donning a beard and robe as she prepares to perform the opera in the town of San Javier.
