Two Languages. Timeless Music. One Unforgettable Journey

Chaski is running back to stages throughout the greater Indianapolis area!

This Fall, the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra proudly reprises our much-loved, one-of-a-kind bilingual musical story time.

🌟 What Awaits You:

  • A Vibrant Tale: Follow Little Chaski’s thrilling race along the Inca Trail through bold illustrations and lively bilingual storytelling.

  • Living History: Experience rare 1780s musical selections from the Codex Trujillo del Perú and ancient Cathedral archives—some performed for the first time since the 1700s!

  • Pure Joy: A high-energy, 45-minute interactive program designed to ignite the imaginations of the young and the young-at-heart.

  • Grand Finale: Stand up, sing out, and dance along to the official "Run, Little Chaski" theme song, custom-arranged for our unique historical instruments.

Thoughtfully crafted to inspire, educate, and connect. Come experience a diverse, living musical cultural tradition that bridges centuries and languages alike.
