Wikipedia, Jorge Bravo de Rueda. Huayno is a genre of popular
Andean Music from Peru. It is especially common in Peru and
Bolivia. It originated in Peru as a combination of traditional
rural folk music and popular urban dance music. High-pitched
vocals are accompanied by a variety of instruments, including
flute, harp, panpipe, accordion, saxophone, charango, lute,
violin, guitar, and mandolin. Some elements of huay˝o originate
in the music of the pre-Columbian Andes. Huayno utilizes a
distinctive rhythm in which the first beat is stressed and
followed by two short beats.
