Yma Sumac: The Nightingale of the Incas | 01 Nov. 2024

A tribute to a true marvel of nature… the one and only Yma Sumac, whose unmatched voice spanned over four octaves, reaching baritone depths! The Peruvian soprano led a vibrant life full of hardships and battles, achieving international acclaim through determination, perseverance, and hard work.

Singing to jazz rhythms with Latin American and Polynesian influences, she captivated audiences across the globe. She passed away on this day 16 years ago but remains immortal in the pages of history.

Time in Greece and Nikolas Angelidis honor Yma Sumac’s magic with a humble tribute that respects her legacy and her deep fondness for Greece. In the 1950s, she visited Greece and fell in love with the song Garifallo st’ afti (“Carnation in the Ear”)… Stories like these, and many others, reveal the lesser-known sides of this “daughter of the sun.”
