Ep. 3 "Tuhuayo" by Daniel Cueto | Performed by Zoe Cagan

March 18, 2019 | This was our first video ever filmed for Exposure TV and it was definitely a learning experience for all of us. Zoe played us a marathon of music. This piece is Tuhauyo by Daniel Cueto. We also recorded a Flute Set for Solo Flute by Adolphus Hailstork and Danza de la Mariposa by Valerie Coleman.

[ ABOUT THE MUSIC ]
“...The tuhuayo, a bird from the Peruvian jungle, is probably not your typical "flute" bird. It is about 12 inches in size. It flies only to catch its prey, and is otherwise very fond of the ground; so much, that it also lays its eggs there, without making a nest. The tuhuayo is a nocturnal bird, resting during the day, and singing throughout the night.” - Daniel Cueto
