QUENA "EDDY LIMA"

Eddy Lima has been building quenas since his childhood and uses his own quenas for his recordings and concerts.

As interpreter – luthier, he has tested his Quena with the highest grade harmonics for performance. This Quena was submitted to analysis in the physical acoustics laboratory at the Tomas Frias University by Dr. Arnold Gerard (physicist, investigator and ethno-musicologist). The results were impressive.
