Many of these traditional instruments include: “bamboo flutes, human thighbone flutes, conch shells, cymbals, hand drums, bells, oboe-like flageolets, conch shell trumpets, drums made of two skull halves placed back to back, four-meter-long tonqin horns, dama drums”.

A popular fiesta I looked up was the Andean Mistizo Festival in Paucartando, Peru. The dancers are named different things according to the different things that they do. An example is the Qolla dancers who are labelled as outsiders during the festivities. The Qolla dancers are labelled as outsiders and their rivals are the Chuncho dancers, who are described as being more refined. The musical style played during this time is called Mestizo Music (http://www.cabrillo.edu/~mstrunk/Music12/Wk12/Music%20In%20Latin%20America.htm). KS]]> 2019-11-14 18:18:39 UTC https://padlet.com/tsidebothom/o3iqd1nnnk16/wish/411389845 F.M. https://padlet.com/tsidebothom/o3iqd1nnnk16/wish/411391103 Funerals and sadness usually go together, but in African lament it is more a time of fellowship with friends and family.

Known as sesquialtera (or hemiola), duple and triple rhythmic patterns can be juxtaposed sequentially by the same instrument or are played simultaneously by different instruments within an ensemble. Thus, a bass instrument might emphasize a triple (3/4) feeling against the duple feeling played by a guitarist, with the maraca player moving back and forth between duple and triple patterns. The tension that results from juxtaposing duple and triple rhythms creates a wonderful excitement in the music. In addition to sesquialtera rhythmic organization, local variants of the waltz in 3/4 time are widespread as are variants of the European polka, marches, and other genres in 2/4 and 4/4 time"(http://www.cabrillo.edu/~mstrunk/Music12/Wk12/Music%20In%20Latin%20America.htm). KS]]> 2019-11-14 18:25:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tsidebothom/o3iqd1nnnk16/wish/411394979 Lament: Latin America https://padlet.com/tsidebothom/o3iqd1nnnk16/wish/411398433 "Vamos a Darnos Tiempo" is a song by the Latin American artist Jose Jose.
