Some of these include the cathedrals of Mexico City, Cartagena and Bogota (Colombia), Quito (Ecuador), La Paz (Bolivia), as well as some of the most important baroque churches in Peru, Brazil, and Bolivia.

Throughout its career, Música Ficta has passionately endeavored the dissemination of this often unknown and colorfully diverse repertoire. Its innovative and creative programs based on careful musicological research, create persuasive performances that have been warmly praised by music critics, and enthusiastically received by the public. Its performances have been broadcast by Radio France International, Radio Nederland (The Netherlands), Russkoye Radio (Russia), Cologne Radio (Germany) and National Public Radio (USA). Through its CD recordings for Arion (France), Arts Music (Germany), Centaur (USA), and Milan-Jade (France), Musica Ficta has highlighted the quality and international appeal of Latin-American and Spanish baroque repertoire. These recordings have received excellent reviews from the Washington Post, Klassik Magazin, Goldberg, American Record Guide, Audiophile Audition, Le Monde de la Musique, and Allmusic, in which the quality of the music and the ensemble has been emphasized.
