Concerts are held rain or shine (they move indoors in the case of extreme weather). Admission to the concerts is FREE. General seating is available on a first-come basis or guests are encouraged to bring their own chair. Generously Supported by the Edwards Charitable Foundation.
The Imbayakunas’ music allows the listener to escape on an exotic voyage to a South American traditional Native community. The music ranges from the traditional sounds of Yarabi, San Juan, Albasos, Tinkus, Huaynos, Tobas, Taquiraris and Sayas to the more contemporary sounds of Cumbias, Bombas, Rumbas and Ballads. They play traditional Andean Native music with an infusion of Latin and European sounds. Their traditional instruments are the pan flutes, rondador, charango, drum, ronrroco and cajas. They also use newer instruments like the guitar, violin, bandolin and bass.
