Musicians playing a quena (front centre) and pinkillo flutes (behind), Virgen de la Candelaria festival, Puno, Peru
The musician in the front centre is playing a quena. The 2 men behind him are playing pinkillo flutes. Look closely at the mouthpieces to see the difference, the quena has a notch cut into the end of the flute unlike the pinkillo.
