The story

Festival Nacional del Requinto Asuncion in Asuncion

This entry duplicates festival-nacional-del-requinto-asuncion-py: the same Festival Nacional del Requinto, a national tribute to the requinto guitar first staged at the Teatro Municipal de Asuncion in May 2024 by the Asociacion Paraguaya de Requintistas, appears twice in this dataset under two slightly different slugs for the same city and event.

This slug and festival-nacional-del-requinto-asuncion-py describe the identical event: the Festival Nacional del Requinto, held for the first time in May 2024 at the Teatro Municipal de Asuncion, organized by the Asociacion Paraguaya de Requintistas as a tribute to the requinto, the smaller, higher-pitched relative of the classical guitar central to Paraguayan folk ensemble playing.

01

The place changes

See festival-nacional-del-requinto-asuncion-py for full detail: the festival is notable for dedicating a national event to a single instrument, the requinto, honoring named historic masters such as Juan Cancio Barreto and Rigoberto Arevalo, and pairing generations of players from across several Paraguayan departments in one Asuncion theater program built around free public admission rather than ticketed entry, organized by the Asociacion Paraguaya de Requintistas rather than a municipal tourism office or private concert promoter
