I've been collecting music from the Andean
Cordillera during college and for years afterward. Please e-mail
any corrections or comments. There is a wide - and growing - variety of
examples here. I hope you'll be inspired to look further into the music
and other sociocultural facets of the Andes region and South America in
general. Be sure to check your local listings for live performances of
this music. CDs are also available.
If you can help with more information on
the artists, titles, and record numbers, be sure to email me. If you
are an artist represented on these pages, please contact me with
purchase information for your recordings, and we will post it for our
visitors - Email: Jim

These commercial stations work in all players. Good stereo sound. Peruvian radio broadcasting has a
different style from that in the US and Canada. When there is a
live announcer, they create a sort of fun party
atmosphere. Recorded announcements are overproduced and
loud by American standards. While American announcers may "talk
up" the instrumental beginning of a music selection, these announcers
may intrude during any instrumental parts. When the playback
computer is
running unassisted, this doesn't happen.
Great music here. These are fun to listen to, especially
if you understand Spanish. Peru Folk Radio has metadata to
announce each music piece in your player. Antena Sur may arguably have a
stronger folklorico slant, but try them both since they have different
playlists. There are other online Peruvian radio stations, but
these two are the ones I recommend, and they should both be in your
player's favorite list!
