Happy Columbus Day!!! Durante el transcurso de los siglos XVI y XVII emergió en la Nueva España música del mismo esplendor y colorido de la música barroca contemporánea deEuropa. Las composiciones musicales fueron dedicadas al culto religioso de la época, así como también, en algunos casos, a representar los sentimientos humanos más profundos.The word baroque is derived from the Portuguese word barroco, Spanish barroco, or French baroque, all of which refer to a rough or imperfect pearl, though whether it entered those languages via Latin, Arabic, or some other source is uncertain. The 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica 11th edition thought the term was derived from the Spanish barrueco, a large, irregularly-shaped pearl, and that it had for a time been confined to the craft of the jeweller. Others derive it from the mnemonic term Baroco, a supposedly laboured form of syllogism in logical Scholastica. The Latin root can be found in bis-roca. In informal usage, the word baroque can simply mean that something is elaborate, with many details, without reference to the Baroque styles of the 17th and 18th centuries. The word Baroque, like most periodic or stylistic designations, was invented by later critics rather than practitioners of the arts in the 17th and early 18th centuries. It is a French transliteration of the Portuguese phrase pérola barroca, which means irregular pearl, and natural pearls that deviate from the usual, regular forms so they do not have an axis of rotation are known as baroque pearls. youtu.be/L6gK_s9p0CE
