Description
A sousaphone musician in action at the Gran Poder festival in La Paz, Bolivia. The festival is the biggest in the city and one of the biggest in the country, tens of thousands of dancers and musicians take part in the parades. Brass bands add the noise and rhythm to go with the colour and dancers, and are always fun to play with photographically! I'm always impressed by the lung power required to play large wind instruments for hours at high altitude - central La Paz lies at 3600m / nearly 12,000ft asl and many town and villages in the Andean regions South America are at similar or higher altitudes.....!
