Track 1 from Saydisc "Percussion around the World" - notes from Maureen Hanke.
Vientos del Sur is an example of traditional music of the Andes. It features the Bolivian pipes, accompanied by the interesting percussion sound of the bombo. The bombo is the double-headed frame drum of Spain and South America.
In Vientos del Sur, the bombo plays throughout. The beats are arranged into groups of 6 and the bombo plays on the first of each group of 6.
This is the strong beat.
(In a music session note how the low pitch of the bombo gives a feeling of strength to the piece. Count the groups of 6 while you listen.)

Track 3 from Saydisc "Percussion Around the World" - notes from Maureen Hanke.
'Llorando se Fue' is an example of traditional Andean music. In this piece the Bolivian pipes are accompanied by the shajshas. The shajshas are goats hooves strung together and played by shaking. They are most often used to keep the steady beat in an accompaniment part and are featured throughout this piece. The clearest sound of the shajshas can be first heard in the opening of the music with the guitar.
