An internationally recognized virtuoso of pan–pipes and South American flutes, Inkuyo founder Gonzalo Vargas, inherited his traditional musical knowledge growing up in the remote Andean village of Tapajkari, Bolivia. His desire to perform, study and teach his ancestral music led him to work with numerous ensembles in his native land. He then played a key role in introducing Andean music to the United States and Canada as one of the founders of Sukay. In creating Inkuyo, Vargas brought together the talents of three musicians who are well versed in the Andean musical heritage. Pamela Darington studied South American culture in college and has been performing with Vargas since 1983. Both Jorge Tapia and Omar Sepulveda are Chilean refugees who moved to California and became involved with traditional music as a way of remaining close to their roots. Their performances have helped build awareness of the plight of the Chilean people.
