For most today is Halloween however, here in Peru the 31st of October is also Dia de La Cancion Criolla/Cancion Peruana (Day of Criolla Music/Peruvian Music...I have seen both used interchangably).  Since 1944 this day has been used to pay tribute to musica criolla as well as many of Peru's famous musical artists.

Most bars and peñas in Peru will definately be celebrating the holiday and it is unfortunate that I will not be attending one because my friends would rather celebrate Halloween instead, SIGH......

Well in the spirit of the holiday I posted a few songs below from some famous Peruvian musicians, enjoy!





















There are so many others I could have posted but this should do for now.  If I think of any others I will surely post them.
