Track 3 from Saydisc "Percussion Around the World" - notes from Maureen Hanke.
'Llorando se Fue' is an example of traditional Andean music. In this piece the Bolivian pipes are accompanied by the shajshas. The shajshas are goats hooves strung together and played by shaking. They are most often used to keep the steady beat in an accompaniment part and are featured throughout this piece. The clearest sound of the shajshas can be first heard in the opening of the music with the guitar.
