Centro Cultural Inca Garcilaso and Instituto Cervantes present the cycle of concerts Sung History of Peruvian Music, which gathers together Peru’s most representative musical genres to show the evolution and the main characteristics of each one.
This afternoon, at the headquarters of the Instituto Cervantes, a tribute to Peruvian waltz will be performed, with singer Miryam Quiñones, born in Lima and resident in Madrid, a renowned Peruvian and Latin American music performer. Within the musical genres that appeared in Lima and other cities of Peru at the end of the 19th century, a reworking of the waltz, known as the Creole or Peruvian waltz, stands out.
