Herbert Quinteros is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and a torchbearer of Peruvian shamanic music who has garnered a following for his profound integration of traditional South American musical forms and contemporary soundscapes. Born in Tarapoto, Peru, Quinteros was deeply influenced by the rich cultural tapestry of his homeland, which includes indigenous Amazonian sounds as well as the spiritual heritage tied to them. Throughout his career, he has shown great dedication to the musical expression of the vibrant shamanic culture, earning him respect and recognition not only within the world music community but also among those who seek a spiritual connection through music.
His music, which often features the soothing sounds of flutes, guitars, and a variety of native Peruvian instruments, is aimed at healing and spiritual communion, inspired by the traditional icaros, which are ceremonial songs used by shamans to guide ayahuasca ceremonies. Herbert's recent releases such as "Ceremonia" and "Icaro" encapsulate his commitment to the ceremonial and healing aspects of music, blending ancestral wisdom with his own personal touch. "Ahuahueya" and "Amazsonico" continue this exploration, with Quinteros diving deeper into the Amazon's sonic universe and showcasing the power of music as a bridge between the worldly and the divine. His work not only celebrates his heritage but also invites listeners to embark on their own inner journeys of discovery and enlightenment.
