It is about Walter Chunganatural Sechura (Piura), who left his Business Administration degree to achieve his dream of founding his own cumbia orchestra. His father, a fishing boat director, was his great support in achieving this. Although he started in the group as a singer, he currently holds the position of manager and musical director.
