Milar Zenteno

Milar Zenteno is a songwriter and composer of “trova” music from southern Peru (Moquegua). Since 1998 he has been compiling poems and poetic fragments and setting them to music.

The musicalisation of his poems is accompanied by the rhythms and sounds of typical Andean and Afro-Peruvian instruments, such as the “cajon”, the “quenas”, the pan flute and others. All these instruments are handmade.
