Taita Gundo is a family project directed by the prestigious musician Ali Lema that was born from the need to rescue the construction, elaboration and interpretation of musical instruments of the Andes such as pingullos, dulzainas, quenas, quenachos, quenillas, rondadores, pallas, sikuris, as well as antaras and zampoñas which are especially representative of the Imbabura province.
