perform at St. Lawrence University on Friday, September 15, at

Inca language Quechua, was formed in 1973 by Peruvian folk musician and 
teacher Guillermo Guerrero. The group is dedicated to the research and 
performance of traditional music from the Andean countries that once

Colombia.

museums, schools and international folk festivals throughout the United 
States and Canada.
