El Regreso Del Inca (Volume 10)
Inca Son transports audiences to the Andes Mountains with their ancient melodies, dances and colorful attire. The internationally acclaimed group shares their comprehensive knowledge of Inca culture. Sounds of the pan flutes, ranging from lively and happy to plaintive and haunting, is pure magic.
Past Boston Music Award recipients, their venues range from the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, United Nations, Carnegie Hall, Kennedy Center and Boston's Symphony Hall, where they performed with the Pops. Inca Son is the first Peruvian group to win the coveted Independent Music Award.
Inca Son delights in playing for students of all ages and have produced a great Teacher's Resource Guide. Their vibrant sound has entertained audiences throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and Latin America.
In the words of Boston Herald music critic Bob Young, "Inca Son, resplendent in feathers and singing the songs of their Inca ancestors, is a sight to behold."
