Bravissimo!

Interesante tu aportación, pero esta es una guaracha del siglo XVII (no XVIII) y es tomada de los manuscritos de la Catedral de Puebla de los Ángeles, en Mëxico, correspondientes a los villancicos del Juan García de Céspedes.
Luego, se trata de otro género de danza, de orígen indígena, mestizo, o criollo; que también se llama guaracha.
El maestro Céspedes era o criollo, o mestizo, en cualquier caso, nacido en América, y nunca viajó fuera de Nueva España.

MAGNIFICENT INTERPRETATION.
Jordi Saval and his Baroque Vocal Ensamble "Le Concert Des Nations" have always interpreted Mexican and LatinAmerican Baroque Music with the highest degree of excelence. Their rithm is more 'American' than the usual slower tempo of their American conterparts. Less ceremonial. Is Monserrat Figueiras in the vocals ? I love her voice.
Thank you for such a great video.
Thank you for sharing beauty !

Montserrat Figueras is a soloist in this album. The soprano you are listening to is Argentinian Adriana Fernández. Technically, this piece is more suited to Adriana than Montserrat -- the latter could easily put a whammy on the rest of the singers.
I think you're referring to La Capella Reial de Catalunya by vocal ensemble, not Le Concert des Nations. :)
For more L.A. Baroque interpretations of excellence, I recommend you to also look for Ensemble Elyma/Garrido.
