It was released in 1992 under Higher Octave Higher Octave Music . This album was created for the short TV series Sielmann 2000 . It was a Documentary film documentary on changes occurring in the environment. Unlike the 1991 Sielmann 2000 Soundtrack , Cusco 2000 and its companion Cusco 2002 are arranged as proper studio albums. The music on this album combined classical styles, euphoric melodies and rhythms of Old Europe with the occasional Peru vian pan flute and African drum beat. Overall, this album is much more symphonic in style than any previous Cusco album the soundtrack excluded , and this has gained the album much critical and commercial attention. The tracks North Easter and Flying Condor are very different versions from those of the earlier album releases, each severely reworked for these symphonic versions. Of lesser known interest is that the opening track Islands of the Galapagos is a similarly extremely reworked version of Galapagos from their 1980 debut album Desert Island album Desert Island . This track, and also Dark Fascination , were edited down for this release from the original Sielmann 2000 Soundtrack versions.

Orphan date February 2009 Context date October 2009 Because of their immediate defeat at the hands of the Spanish, much information surrounding Incan religion has been lost. Many historians rely on the religious customs of conquered Incan subjects to gather information about Incan beliefs. The Incans adopted most if not all of their religious beliefs from three main groups that lived around the empire. These groups were the Huari , the Chavin and the Nazca . With the combination of all three of these ancestral societies religions, the Incas were able to create a religious system that dominated almost every aspect of life in the empire. The Inca s were profoundly religious, and so it makes sense that their religious structure was very complicated. The religion was centralized in the capital city of Cuzco. Within Cuzco, a highly complicated and organized calendar controlled the state religion s festivals and holy days. This calendar was responsible for almost all of the religious ceremonies that took place throughout the empire. Within the city of Cuzco, there was also over three hundred and twenty eight huacas or sacred objects. Huacas were located throughout the empire with most of them happening to be around the capital city. Within the capital city there was also a quipa. The quipa described all the sacred places and how they are to be used during ceremonies and sacrifices. Each sacred place or huaca was organized into forty one different directions called ceques . These ceques started from the central temple of the Sun called Coricancha or the golden enclosure. There were ten groups of Incan nobility that were in charge of being priests within the city of Cuzco. These ten groups of nobility were called panacas . The panacas had a vital role to Incan society in Cuzco because they were in charge of worship for the deities. All of the religious aspects that took place around the city were organized and arranged by this special group of nobility. The members of these ... more details
