Peru 2003:
By bus from Quito, Ecuador to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
...........................................................
February 14 - Chivay, Peru. We enjoyed dinner at the Hotel Posada del Inca. The restaurant area holds about 4 long tables. We were entertained by a local group which played a mix of Andean music, some modern pop, and traditional tunes and rhythms. Most of the musicians were brothers. There was a good deal of varied percussion, and the panpipe players alternated notes when doing fast runs; technically this is sometimes necessary due to placement of notes on the double-rowed panpipes. |
