Alborada
Alborada (often referred to as Grupo Alborada) is highly regarded as one of the most masterful, premier acts for Andean, Incan, and contemporary Native American music. Formed in 1984 in the high-altitude regions of Peru, they are celebrated globally for blending traditional Andean instruments with modern, cinematic orchestration.
Kjarkas
Los Kjarkas are universally celebrated as one of the most famous and influential musical groups from the Andean highlands, or Altiplano. Originating from Bolivia’s Capinota province, their music is defined by traditional Andean folk styles like the saya, huayno, and caporal, and is played using indigenous instruments like the charango, quena, and zampoña.
