Hello well done my fellow American!!! I am from the USA and my parents are from Bolivia. Historically speaking the Charango is from Bolivia because it has history in Potosi where they found the first armadillos. This instrument was passed down from my father. I also play Charango as well!!!
Error, the charango is an instrument that derived from the baroque guitar and its area of origin is in the Andean area that covers Peru and Bolivia. By the time this instrument originated (during the colonial era) there was none of the political territorial division that gives rise to the current South American countries. The armadillo has nothing to do with the origin, since this instrument could be made with different materials.
@@xarv368, your the one making the mistake! Don’t say something you know nothing about! What evidence does Peru have in having the Charango. I know this not only by having this in my Bolivian culture but having evidence. The next time you want to comment. Look at the evidence and don’t refute back to this unless you have evidence. Also the Charango isn’t an Andean instrument because it is an Instrument that is principally used in Bolivia. Making Bolivia the primary source of this instrument and it’s folk music. The instrument before that that inspired the Charango is called the Vihuela which is from Spain.
@@didgeproject , if you want more information let me know me! Don’t listen to the other guy as I know more information based on Historical Evidence. Also, you did good job playing the instrument. I hope more American people like myself play this beautiful instrument and share my Bolivian Culture.
Thanks for introducing another interesting instrument to me. Wonder what adding throat singing would sound like, seems like you were on the edge of doing so…
From top (closet to your head) to bottom G-C-E-A-E . Remember that although you tune each set of two strings to the same pitch, they should be an octave apart. God bless all.
Hey do you think you could show us how to know what string decimal goes to which, because right now I’m trying to fix my Charango strings and we can’t figure out what string, (and it seems there’s a decimal number for each string and we don’t know which one it goes to, for example there is the 0.019, 0.020, 0.025, 0.028, 0.030, and last 0.033) do you think you could show us which string goes to which bracket
I have been searching for this song played on a churango for so long and I can’t find it 😭 it’s a modern day sort of dark/haunted sounding religious song. I think it might be called undone or at least that word is a strong theme in it. If anyone finds it let me know. 😭😭😭
My father is very skillful with the charango yet he refuses to teach me "yadda yadda parents arent good teachers", so I was wondering how I can learn this instrument properly. My Spanish is scuffed so I'd love some English advice

Charango does belong to Bolivia because it is where the Primary Source of folk and music come from. Peru doesn’t have that history. There is no evidence that points to Peru whatsoever.
@@didgeproject, I also play the charango. I recommend you check out place in Bolivia where they sell Charangos it is in the city of Cochabamba and the manufactured is called Gamboa. They are the best Charangos ever made.
It is created by Bolivian master music teachers, just like this string instrument called the ronroco, another creation by Bolivian folclore master music teachers!!! ua-cam.com/video/tS0cYmgRaAE/v-deo.html Just like the Charango, it is created master music teachers!!!
😆😅🤣😂😁The charango has absolutely nothing to do with Peru or its culture or history!!! He is a native of the imperial town of Potoxi BOLIVIA and by law Nr 3452 on July 21, 2006 its heritage of the Republic of BOLIVIA!!!!!! ua-cam.com/video/8LDSbyS0PKI/v-deo.html and it has absolutely nothing to do with Peru or its culture!!!
Thank you for the gift of sharing this song in your voice. It's one of my favorite songs. I love hearing it in charango version.

@@michaelc.vargas4859 thanks. maybe you can make a video for our channel! email us at info@didgeproject.com
Thanks!
The quintessential sound of Peru that I remember from when I lived there 50 some years ago.
Congratulaciones, tocas muy bien el charango . Saludos desde el Perú, el país de los Hijos del Sol.
Thank You 🙏 👍🏻
Wonderful! Thanks
Thank you for sharing... nice sound & interesting instrument... You too have a good day...

Great suggestion!
@didgeproject there is Ecuadorian, Chilean, and Bolivia.

Beautiful
That is a gorgeous sounding instrument. Wondering if that what Gustavo Santaolalla plays on his song "Iguazu"?
he plays the ronroco which is a baritone charango
How is it tuned please? Which notes? Someone gave me one. Good post!
From top (closet to your head) to bottom G-C-E-A-E . Remember that although you tune each set of two strings to the same pitch, they should be an octave apart. God bless all.
Sorry, only the middle E strings are an octave apart.
Very cool ! I see you carry 2 types of sound hole. Can you say if sound is any different between the two? Thanks much.
There is no discernible sound difference between the two sound hole designs. It’s merely an aesthetic preference. Cheers!
@@didgeproject Many thanks.
I’d love to buy one but they’re really expensive in the US.
Beautiful instrument….wondering about incorporating this into sound baths
I have one but the back is carved into anadean face .looks Ecuador or Peru to me
But would this be a more village crafted piece?
The Chicu sounds are the best.
What is thr name of the song you sing in the end?
Cuñaq

I don’t think we have that info in terms of decimals
Where can I find the tab for that song?
Nice man, what are the chords here?
So it's a 10 string ukulele with an extra E string
It's like this was made for me

words remain Josh Garrels?
Nice! Chah, like in Cha Cha 👍

I want one!!!!!!
Reminds me of Manu Chao a little bit
You should record a CD 😉
It's Bolivian....i'm from Chile tough
Aho
Charango belongs to Bolivia I guess
Yes these were made in Bolivia but our dealer is in Peru
