Enjoy this performance that commemorated the end of summer with a concert by the Andean and Latin fusion band RAYMI (meaning “feast” or “celebration” in Quechua). The group’s passion for its Andean roots is reflected in its music, which combines traditional Peruvian instruments, such as zampoñas, mosceños, quenas, and tarkas, with contemporary instruments. The performance was accompanied by the skillful acrobatic dances of the Peruvian scissor dancers.
RAYMI Musicians: Juan Cayrampoma, Cesar Mario Oretea, Martin Zuniga, Oscar Quispe, Jimmy Rioja.. Scissor Dancers: Luis Angel Belito Luca
The performance was webcast live from the Potomac Atrium of the National Museum of the American Indian on September 17, 2022.
