The concert represents a unique blend of Peru's indigenous language, Quechua, and modern pop style music, with the event promising to deliver a fresh musical experience through a range of vibrant songs and captivating dances.
This performance will not only strengthen the friendship between Peru and Vietnam, but also provide opportunities to further explore the distinctive cultures of both countries.
Peruvian singer Lenin Tamayo, who has been dubbed the founder of ‘Q-pop’, will perform at the function. He combines traditional Andean folk music with pop inspired instrumentation and dance.
His songs mix Quechua, one of Peru’s indigenous languages, with the official tongue of the Inca Empire and Spanish.
Furthermore, Peruvian singer Yolanda Pinares will join Vietnamese guitarist Vu Hien and đàn tỳ bà (plucked four-string instrument) artist Phan Thuy to put on special performances for local audiences. The concert will then take place on October 24 at Hanoi University (HANU).
Both concerts are free, with audiences able to receive invitation tickets via the fanpage of the Embassy of Peru in Vietnam.
