Susana Baca
Susana Baca is one of Peru's most celebrated voices and a three-time Latin Grammy winner who helped bring Afro-Peruvian music to the world. She is also a teacher, folklorist, and ethnomusicologist who treats song as cultural memory.
Origens
Emerging on the Peruvian scene in the mid-1980s, Baca became a central figure in the revival of Afro-Peruvian music, recovering rhythms and songs that had been pushed to the margins of the country's culture.
O som
Her style is rooted in Afro-Peruvian tradition, with hushed, intimate vocals set against earthy percussion and acoustic textures. It's music that feels both scholarly and deeply soulful.
Legado
As a scholar-performer and three-time Latin Grammy winner, Baca has done as much to document and dignify Afro-Peruvian heritage as to perform it, influencing how the genre is understood internationally.
