| Ecuador
is a relatively small country with a rich musical background. Here
you can find Afro-Ecuadorian
sounds from the north coast in Esmeraldas, classic Andean
groups
in Otavalo, classical
music
on the coast in Manta and the sparse yet haunting tunes from the upper
Amazon
basin
near Macas in the Ecuadorian Oriente. As for Quito, we happened upon
a host of amazing blind street musicians (and one who plays the organ in
a chicken restau-
rant). Be sure to check out the
footage from a festival we
attended in Esmeraldas. |
