Abstract

The chicha was a canzonetta composed by José Bernardo Alzedo and José de la Torre Ugarte, the same authors of our National Anthem, which was sung by the people in those days when the Independence of Peru was declared, two hundred years ago. The author rescues it from oblivion by presenting us with the lyrics and musical score
