Album Reviews

Review: 

This fine collection of Afro-Peruvian music features the voices of Susana Baca (in photo at right), Eva Ayllon and Peru Negro. Dance is what gives meaning to this music. You can feel it the first time you hear it. Afro-Peruvians dance during their suffering or their joy, at parties or funerals, at work or rest. In this culture the body asks for free and ample expression, without judgement. -- from the liner notes
