Answer to Question 1

 The Ecuadorian Quichua who created the sanjun of CD 3:3 live in small clusters of houses (comunas) on the slopes of Mt. Cotacachi, one of several volcanoes in the Ecuadorian Andes. These comunas lie outside the town of Cotachachi, in Imbabura Province.
 The Quichua are a traditional people that share a common language, agricultural life style, and similar material culture (houses, style of dress, diet, and so on).
 Having few motorized vehicles, roads, or telephones to get to places and for communication, most of the Quichua rely on walking. For all Quichua, the way around the slopes on chaki anes (a network of footpaths) is second nature.

Answer to Question 2

 This is k'antu music, a type of ceremonial panpipe music from the altiplano (high plateau). This particular example is music of the Kallawaya people who live on the eastern slopes of the Bolivian Andes. The strong rhythmic character of the music is shaped by its dance function. The panpipes and their rhythmic melodies performed at different pitch levels in parallel fashion dominate the selection and give the music its unique sound.
 Performing Native-American music on traditional instruments extends the idea of New Song (Nueva Cancin) to speak on behalf of some of the forgotten Indigenous cultures of Latin America.
