Chirimilla Flute and Drums from Guatemala
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009How can simple instruments and uncomplicated and repetitive sounds create a profound, hauntingly, bewitching and fascinating musical experience?

How can two unpretentious and complementing sounds transport us through a mystical trip to pre-Columbian times? How? Me urge saber.
