This
dance is a mix of three Amazonian rhythms from the Peruvian rainforest for
which Baila Perú have developed collectively a fresh
choreography that represents joy, sensuality, unity and our connection
with nature.
Music,
songs and dance are part of ceremonies and rituals. Voices, imitations
of jungle animal sounds, and stamping of the feet are accompanied by
various instruments such as drums, panpipes, flutes and musical bows.
Our
performance includes some images and ornaments to take you in a virtual
journey to the jungle, where the jaguar is a symbol of power and
courage and the fire a symbol of spiritual strength and protection.
Through
our dance we want to acknowledge and pay homage to our ancestors for
their wisdom, knowledge and respect to Mother Earth. We want to
dedicate this dance to the indigenous communities in Perú and the rest
of the world.
