Music from Peru & Ecuador
Alpamayo (named after the most beautiful snow-covered mountain of Ancash, Peru) perform rhythms of South America that have been danced to in their country for generations. Alpamayo have gathered a huge repertoire of original compositions and traditional pieces from Peru and other countries of South America, with which they have successfully toured all over Europe. Performed on pan flutes, shepherd’s flutes, charango, guitar, bombo and percussion and the occasional touch of electronic instruments to create a new sound. “Beautiful… in less than no time you will become fond of this rich artistic evolution…” – Suono Italy
