Description:This is a video of the first of three traditional song/dance types performed as part of a three-day spring festival. "Kyáye" refers to the dried gourd rattle instrument played along with the singing. The lead singer -- in this video, Angel Solano (red and white striped shirt) --- sings an improvised line which the other singers follow along in, creating as a group the crescendos and diminuendos of the collective song. The singing does not contain Enxet Sur words. The dance which accompanies the singing can be seen towards the end of the video.
This continuation of The Enxet Documentation Project begun in 2016. This documentary corpus includes monologues, conversations, singing, and elicitation work along with videos of Enxet Sur people engaged in traditional cultural and economic activities.
This is a video of a singing/dancing performance, along with the conversations and dialogue which fill the gaps between the music.
Anival Lopez is a school teacher, community leader, cultural docent, and apyohóxma (shaman) in the village of Palo Santo.
