The charango is like a ukulele on steroids: a 10-stringed instrument twanged up and down the steppes of South America’s Andes. Enter legendary Argentinian folklorist Jaime Torres – dubbed the “Jimi Hendrix of the charango” – who, over the past four decades, has shared the stage with Mercedes Sosa, Pavarotti and Eric Clapton. He’s back on Australian soil for the first time in 23 years, touring with his quintet.
