Amauta, traditional music of the Andes
Amauta travels from the lower Hudson Valley to share beautiful music that is steeped in ancient Andean traditions. The group performs music styles that originated in the Pre-Columbian mountain regions of South America inhabited by Quechuas, Aymaras, and other tribes. The repertoire includes folk music from Peru, Bolivia, and Ecuador.
The masterful musicians in Amauta, a title reserved for teachers in the Inca empire, are dedicated to keeping this ancient music alive with performances that showcase their incredible talent playing an array of hand-crafted instruments, including panpipes, quenas flutes, stringed instruments and drums.
