Bringing together the worlds of South American folk, western classical, and contemporary music, guitarist Scott Hill and violist and charango player Carlos Boltes have performed throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe as well as Central and South America to great acclaim. Praised by The Washington Post as playing with “marvelous virtuosity,” Alturas Duo takes its name from the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda’s poem, Alturas de Macchu Picchu. The English translation for Alturas means “heights.”
