El Condor Pasa (Quena) at a local fire trail in Central Coast, NSW.

Working from home is awesome and living on the Central Coast, NSW, means I’m very close to beaches and national parks. Brisbane Water National Park is one awesome place near home, there are several beautiful trails in the park. On a nice day, I would get a sandwich and go for lunch and explore a trail.

This week, I went on Bulls Hill Firetrail because it does not seem very popular, I never see anyone parking there. So I thought it’s great for going to find a secluded spot to practice Quena.

Unsurprisingly, the fire trail path wasn’t special, however, I noticed some large rock platforms on the side of the trail and went off-track to explore. I’m glad I did because I discovered a marvellous place with view on the lake afar. The spot would probably be the closest to what I could get to look like Peruvian landscapes 😅. That inspired me to practice El Condor Pasa on the Quena.

A cozy place to practice Quena.
You really follow your curiosity so you can find such a beautiful place and that's amazing indeed.

The strains of his voice drown the taste and really blend with nature. Who would want to leave and be able to leave such a beautiful place?
I think you really enjoyed being there and I'm sure you'll be back there soon.

Indeed. My time there was too short because I have to count travel time too. Will go back on a weekend

I played your video many times, and I also really enjoyed it.
I will wait for your next post to listen to that melodious voice again.

Have a great day

Man! You sound like Uña! Nicely done, and beautiful spot

Thanks mate. I need to practice more the vibrato/tremolo that gives the Quena it signature Andean sound.

Whatsupp.. Just read your little bio on your front page... Well I would definitely like to see some blacksmithing posts..just a thought... But I think that would be pretty dope

I did few blacksmith posts in the past but my house got flooded so I had to clear out the garage for repairs.

No worries... To be honest I replied before watching the video!... And dayum the sound is lovely... You are not bad at the flute!

It is a flute right?

Anyway I won't mind seeing more of those as well!

Mind tagging me in your next blacksmithing video, then I know I wont miss it 😎😜

Still very pretty despite being nothing special :)

Do you prefer playing outdoors to indoors? Or just like posting the outdoorsy shots more? :D

Hehe, nothing special was referring to the path that lead to that special location 😅

Indoor vs outdoor, depends. Playing outdoor is awesome but there are some indoors locations that offer natural reverb/ echo.

Like the bathroom? XD Though I imagine it would be harder to play an instrument in the shower than just singing XD

Yessss lol.
An empty concrete basement too. A cathedral or empty storey car park would sound amazing too

Play some spooky music in one of those and creep anyone who happens to also be in there/passing by and not know you're in there right out XD

your flute sounds good. It seems to bring a bit of sadness and confiding. I don't understand music but your flute sounds make me feel at peace🌿

Thanks for listening

Awe your music is so beautiful!! Where are you? And where are you from? I’m from Argentina and that music makes me remember to some of our more traditional sounds.

I’m from Australia. I like South American culture: I play Quena, Zampona, drink Yerba Mate, grow Aji Amarillo lol

Woow! Do you drink Yerba Mate in Australia!!? You are the first Australian boy that I met that drinks mate, lol. I’m happy that you like our culture! 😊❤️🙏

Just mindblowing!!!!This flute sounds so soothing to mind.Dreamed to learn to play flute from childhood.You could be best mentor of mine.😂

Thanks. You should check the Native American flute. They are very easy to play, no music theory needed

Wow. That was awesome listening to you play on Quena with this beautiful view. It sounded so good. You should play more often on Quena for us.

Oh... I've loved this song forever.... So good to hear it... Thank you so much for sharing this!.... Nice performance!....

That sounds so aesthetic 💓

I visited Australia in 2009. I so wish I can get back there on day. Such a beautiful country.

There are indeed a lot of great locations to visit in Australia.

The flight was MASSIVELY long hahaha great post

I know. I used to live in Europe and travelling to the area was more than a day long

No doubt, I took a flight from LA to Australia and it was like 14 hours lol. Plus the time zones messed me up too lol. I'll get back there one day!

My longest was 31h due to transits waiting time. You exit the destination airport looking like a Zombie

Dang! No doubt you do look like a zombie after awhile. I went from Pennsylvania, to Texas, To Cali, and finally to Australia. I still remember the feeling of looking out the window, seeing the Australian coast FINALLY. A moment I'll never forget. I miss flying never been on a flight since lol. Ugh time flies!!
