Luzmila Carpo (from Bolivia) Womad 2015

As a child, Luzmila Carpio learned the daily songs of the Quechua and Aymara indigenous people that inhabit the mountains and valleys of Northern Potosí in Bolivia. Now, the great Bolivian folk singer revives those songs and delves deeper into the cultural ways of the Andes, still singing in the 2000-year-old Quechua tongue rather than Spanish and wearing colourful traditional costume while accompanying herself on five-string charango. Performed on Dell Stage, Womad 2015, New Plymouth
