Tawantinsuyo
The land of the Inkas

 

 

The Sound of the Mountains
Hundreds of years ago the Ynkas divided our far-flung country into four regions and gave the melodious name Tawantin Suyo. It means "The Kingdom with Four Quarters." This four regions have different contrasts as sharp as can be seen in other places on earth. There is a mountain world, with peaks so high they bow only to the Himalayas; a desert world, full of life and mysteries, such as the "Nazca Lines" rich in relics of ancient wisdom; a world of cold seas boiling with multitudes of gigantic and tiny fish; and finally a green paradise of jungle, where Natives (Runa) crowned in toucan feathers hunt with blowguns and poison darts. Cozco is the center of the Ynka empire. Tawantinsuyo combines enormous mountains, the sacred city of Machu Pichu and Tiawanaku archeological riches, the highest navigable lake in the world and more Natives than in any other country on the continent. It is in the hills and valleys of this mountains where the music of Ynka Nan borned . Pan flutes, flutes and the colorful charango are the soul of the Andean Music. Here we are to bring you our mountains, lakes, rivers, valleys and jungle in the music of our people as a message of salutation and friendship.

Une musique venue de loin
Carte postale du jour

La culture est également omniprésente dans le cadre des Jeux panaméricains. C'est ainsi que le trio péruvien Ynka Nan (à la manière des Incas) s'est installé juste au-dessus de l'entrée principale du centre des congrès de Winnipeg. Tous les journalistes présents pouvaient donc apprécier la musique interprétée par Miguel Lema, Vilner Mendoza et Sandro Mazuelos. Une pause agréable entre les sprints quotidiens...
