Strollin' musicians in the streets of Bogota, by moonlight

"The small guitar is an instrument called the 'Tiple' of four chords - very commonly played by the lower orders, but more generally by the peasants of the Hot Country. The dances played are the 'Torbellino', 'Manta', 'Bambuco', 'Hurga' and 'Pisa'".
