Drawing from the extensive Spanish religious repertoire of the seventeenth century, 'A batallar estrellas' unites a group of works scored for double chorus, with a spectacularly charged sonority typical of the Iberian baroque. The manuscripts of these pieces (many of the performances are being given here for the first time) have been found in the archives of a number of Spanish cathedrals, as well as from those of Mexico City Cathedral.
