Why go
Nancy Manchego sings out of Apurímac, and what she brings to the Gran Teatro Nacional isn't a stripped-down theatre version but the full format: harp, mandolin, violins and dance. This is music you'd normally hear at a patron-saint festival or a peña, presented here as a concert.
That move is the point. Andean string instruments carry a harmonic richness that any rushed PA system flattens; in a hall built for orchestra, you hear all of it. That alone justifies the night even if the repertoire is familiar.
Guest of honour is Diosdado Gaitán Castro, one of the best-known singer-songwriters from Ayacucho, turning the evening into a meeting of two distinct regional traditions.
