What does the house of the orchestra look like in Monsefú?
In Monsefú, Chiclayo, is the home of the Team 5, so the youngest of the Yaipén wanted his followers to know this traditional property, which combines many of the characteristics that the house of a musician —or an orchestra— should have. In addition to having a large kitchen and dining room, it also has an exclusive recording studio for creating new songs that will delight his followers.
Christian Yaipén told in a report by América Televisión that the property originally belongs to his mother, Maria Elena Quesquén, so he made an effort to convince her to be able to rebuild the house and make it possible to build a recording studio in order to use it and, at the same time, time, spend time with family. “Now we have the studio, but my mother also earned her huge kitchen,” joked the youngest of the Yaipén.
