Even an International Baroque music Festival is held every 2 years in such missions, next is in April 2012.
In the video there's music composed by an anonymous indigenous composer (when a priest composed, the name was always in the scores) , one of the few indigenous names found in original scores is 'Roberto Varayu', perhaps the name of the most important indian composer back then.

The baroque music from the missions was also recorded by the British ensemble Florilegium, with several bolivian musicians in their roster:
