  Daniel Aomia Robles, a native of Peru, is considered one of the outstanding 
authorities on South American fold music.  His research in the field of the 
primitive tribal music of ancient Peru has brought his work to the attention of 
musicologists throughout the world. 
  "El Condor Pasa" is a typical Inca dance, based on authentic Indian folk 
melodies.  It starts in a very slow chant tempo, that gradually increases in 
speed as the composition progresses.  It ends in a highly exciting movement, 
that undoubtedly shows the influence of primitive Peruvian tribal dances. 
  In making this arrangement, Paul Yoder has kept in mind the instrumentaion and 
musical development of school and college bands, as well as concert bands.
