Inca Son Delights FSC Audience
Monday evening, October 29, a capacity audience in the Forum was thrilled by one of Arts & Humanities’ highlights of the year, a vigorous and exciting performance by Inca Son, a music and dance troupe from Peru. “Get ready for a music and dance extravaganza,” said Mark Evans, Arts & Humanities director, in his introduction, and he was right.
Inca Son’s mission is to bring the rich culture of the Andes and other regions of South America to new audiences around the world. Cesar Villalobos, founder and creative director, together with other musicians sang and played Andean instruments. Other members of the group performed traditional dances. All wore colorful regional costumes.
Inca Son is the winner of the 2007 Independent Music Award and the Boston Music Award. They have performed in many national venues, including the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, and the Epcot Center, Disney World, and with the Boston Pops.
