We received word from the following Cayambis composers and artists about their recent activities.
Last week, the Sixth International Classical Guitar Festival took place in Santiago, Chile, for which Federico Núñez was part of the team of organizers.

This past Saturday, Sadiel Cuentas led a round-table discussion on contemporary and historic musical tendencies and the challenges around artistic education in Peru. The event was held at the Goethe Institute in Lima. Sadiel is in the middle of the photo below. (We don’t know who the other people are).
