Recorded in Tijeras, New Mexico, in the fall of 1997. This work was the first recording to come out following the Markahuasi years. Many traditional song-forms displayed throughout, including Ecuadorian San Juanitos and a number of Bolivian song- forms like the Morenada, Trote, Saya and Taquirari. This was the first time we explored a few non-traditional melodies like “Dust in the Wind” and “Don’t Cry for me Argentina.” These proved highly popular during our performances and become a trend that we followed up on in later productions.
