In addition to marimbas, kalimbas, and additional percussion instruments, the music is a deliciously exotic flavour. The drumming, as you may image, is superb. The voices ring out joyfully, giving this already exciting music an uplifting aura of celebration.

I'm looking for Carlos Chalacan from Ecuador. He's playing with his group "Sacha Runa." I met him in Terneuzen. He was making music at a school, there was a party. I still have his chain/necklace (what's the right word) and his poster. He also sent me a postcard, written in Dutch.
Carlos I hope your will read this, can you please contact me?
Hi can you please let me know if Sacha Runa play at intimate weddings. We really enjoy the pan pipes and listen to them every time there in Galway. I would realy appreciate if somebody would get back to me and let me know the situation
Regards with fingers crossed
Veronica.
