Answer to Question 1

 The Andean ensemble phenomenon refers to the spread of Andean music and ensembles (playing traditional Andean instruments) to other parts of the world.
 Examples will vary and may include any of the ensembles referred to in discussion questions 36-44 from the Lecture Outline for Chapter 9. Two examples might be:
(1) Otavalo music performed by Quichua musicians from the Otavalo Valley of Imbabura (a province in the Andes of Northern Ecuador) that has now become globalized, part of the world music beat . . . and
 (2) the husband/wife duo, Chaskinakuy, self-described as dedicated revivalists, who perform songs in Quechua/Quichua and Spanish on a variety of native Andean instruments.

Answer to Question 2
