Two girls and two boys who don’t look like anything found a space in the music to sound like one.   By Nelson Peñaherrera Castillo .

The roll sounds, the walk begins, and his mother in the tribune holds the breathing.   After many years, a devaluated Sullana’s Feria de Reyes re-launched one of its most missed contests – the marinera and tondero festival. The second one is purely African-Piura-native but the marinera has an entire story that comes from the own Spain and that, after a stop in Chile, is one of the most...
