Yma Sumac - News

Yma Sumac welcomes to Her Official site

  
Hello Everyone!
 
There is much to tell at this time. The first, of course, is Yma Sumac's new CD called  THE VOICE, which everyone is loving! The Diva sings in English, Spanish, Russian, Italian and Quechuan. There is pop, operatic arias, traditional American, Peruvian, and more to enjoy.  There are notes hit on this CD that are higher than Miss Sumac's Capitol recordings! You can see a preview video HERE. And you can purchase HERE.
 
All tracks are live and remastered. These tracks were originally meant to be a promo for this site in 2005, but were always put on hold, till now. We do accept checks and money orders for anything in the Shop Page, as well.
 
The Diva's amazing personal wardrobe has been doing very well on Ebay the last year, but her high-end vintage gowns are not really appropriate for Ebay. Therefore, you can find them, (without bidding!)  HERE and HERE
 
What does not go to museums or are kept here for archival and sentimental reasons, will continue to be on Ebay and can be found weekly HERE. Sumac would be thrilled that her things were being dispersed all over the world and brought back to life again. They were in storage for many, many years. I have taken them out and carefully matched them with  photos of her wearing the items (provided that she is photographed wearing the item). You can't imagine the time it takes to locate such a photo amongst thousands! Then I scan them, crop, color correct and list them, as well as the item itself. I do this alone. But it is part of my dedication to her as well as to her fans who had a mutual appreciation.  
 
Recently I sent, as a gift, her most famous pink outfit from her historic 2006 visit to Peru, to a special Peruvian fan. When we went there for the trip, it was he who had originally brought up the idea of a massive homage to her. Once there, Peruvian "VIP's" totally overlooked him and took credit for everything. So...I hope this will make him happy when the box arrives!
He deserves it. 
 
Don't forget to visit our beloved GUEST BOOK. It totally warms our hearts here, to read your kind words and the sharing of your Sumac stories.
 
Till next time.
