PUNO

The city of Puno is the most perfect sample of the urban carnival of the high plateau. Twenty thousand dancers and near two thousand musician in scene, counterpoint of student bands (orchestra in charge of the musical accompanying), wardrobe and choreography competing for prestige, social pride, institutional honor and generational primacy, catalyst of wills, efforts and resources. Colorful human rivers flow along the city streets, the soft cadence of sensual hips, compliments, hugs, touches of undeniable eroticism, interlaced hands, charming and provovative smiles, skirts and robes wave in fascinating choreography, tremolo of mandolins, sound of violins ond accordions, strumming of charangos and dialogue of panpipes contrasting with the humming of guitars,large guitars and contrabasses. Melodies of perfect chromatism, harmony carried to the supreme refinement. An elating pleasure to the eyes, indescribable joy to the hearing, a gift for the spirit, a poem turned into color, movement and sound, sublime art. Pure life!!
