The learning of traditional Peruvian music and its contribution to cultural identity. Use of single value neutrosophic sets for its analysis

The power of music to evoke time and place, its emotional force as an individual experience and as a representation of the community, make it a pre-eminent symbol for collectivities such as nations, ethnic groups, and subcultures.

The supposed timelessness of musical traditions along with the mythical belief in the uniqueness of a certain musical expression can lead to consider musical forms as representations of the genuine essence of the identity of certain groups. But the claim to the purity of music or any symbol or tradition is unfounded.

Neither identities nor traditions are static. They both change with circumstances and with the continuous interaction of the peoples. This review will focus on musical interaction and continual modification of symbols and traditions.
