Product Description

The Saqra de Paucartambo dance originated during the late 19th and early 20th century colonial period. It is one of the principal dances of the celebration of Virgen del Carmen in Paucartambo, Cusco - Perú. Its main characters, which are little devils, bother the Virgen del Carmen during its traditional passacaglia dance by making jokes and climbing on the rooftops. The dancers wear fabulous out ts with lots of colors to represent the rainbow and sunrise. These clothes are ornamented and embroidered with shapes of prey birds, reptiles, applications, and rhinestones. The performers wear characteristic masks in the form of bats, pigs, cats, dogs, or other animals while also wearing claws, large wigs, handkerchiefs, and a colorful cane with sleighbells.

This is an arrangement made for flute ensemble (C flutes). Each voice has a different difficulty starting at a very beginner level. It's rythmic character will make it fun and easy to play for little flutists. Enjoy!
