Charango Lessons with Anaís Azul

I offer charango lessons focusing on improvisation, composition, and Quechua songs (primarily from the Cusco and Ayacucho regions of Perú).

The charango lessons will come heavily infused with vocal practice, as I am primarily a singer and have come to the Charango as an ancestral instrument to accompany my voice.

Book Your lesson using the Calendar bellow. And welcome to all of Monique Mizrahi’s students, I am excited to get to know you!

Anais Azul (they/them) is a Peruvian born, California grown, composer, vocalist and charango player. Since immigrating to the U.S at age 4, they have longed to return to their motherland. This diasporic longing has led them to return to Perú to reconnect with their roots and deepen their knowledge of Andean music, history, and Quechua. Today, their music transports us to a dreamy realm where Andean sounds and experimental electronic production are tied together through stories and lyrics about migration, healing, and resilience in three languages: English, Spanish, and Quechua. Azul’s music is dedicated to Latin American diasporas across the globe.
