Octavo. 15 pages. Adrienne Inglis (ASCAP) #704839. Published by Adrienne Inglis (ASCAP) (A0.1101463). Perfect for community or high school choirs! Exciting, accessible rhythmic piece in Spanish and Quechua, easy to pronounce, with foot-stomping! The tinku is a ritual fighting dance meant to draw blood to honor Pacha Mama (Mother Earth). Señora chichera is a popular Bolivian tinku that has catchy syncopation, raucous stomps, and lyrics in Spanish and Quechua, the language of the Incas. The verse in Quechua is curiously not a translation of the Spanish verse. The alcoholic drink mentioned in the song is chicha, a fermented corn drink enjoyed in the Andes for many centuries. This arrangement for mixed chorus and piano celebrates the song's tradition while exploring some typical Andean parallel harmonies that would horrify J. S. Bach.
