CH’UWA YACU Boliva

Javier Zapata and four other Bolivian musicians will share their mystical instrumental music from the heart of the Andes Mountains. The instruments they use are as fascinating as the music they make - “rainsticks” made of hollow cactus filled with small stones, 5-foot long “toyos”, bamboo “rondadors”, chajchas – percussion instruments made with goat toenails, and Zamponas – a set of graduated flutes bound together that produce the haunting, wind-like sound distinctive to Andean music.
