March 30- On to Bolivia and Paraguay as we continue to travel through South America, where the Andean traditions are as strong as they are in the north, but with some surprising local variations.

We’ll sample a bit of the uniquely Paraguayan polka, too, from it roots in Europe to the present day. New music to wrap up.
