Meet the Bolivians who are making a very different kind of jungle Music.

Classical music was introduced into Bolivia by Jesuit priests, but the tradition faded.
It is now being resurrected by a classically-trained Bolivian musician who sees this type of music as a way out of the poverty and alienation felt by many young Bolivians.
Today, this classical music is regaining popularity. Rodrigo Vazquez goes to meet the Bolivians making a very different kind of Jungle Music.
