Information on another country?

I have to do a report for my spanish class on an assigned country and I was given Peru. My role is to focus on the music of Peru and I want to focus on the music styles, its origins, and big festivals that take place, and my teacher told me to focus on the harp. I don’t know where to start because I need to give a 3 minute oral presentation so I need a lot of information. Any clues or websites where I can start? Please don’t say something like “wikipedia” or “google it.” Thanks!

First off you should develop a plan. A certain way to order it out so you’ll have it almost pre-meditated before you begin your research process.

If it’s music i would use the plan as followed.

Intro: 20 seconds.
History of the Music: 1 Minute
Musical Traditions: 40 Seconds
Instruments used and Modern Times: 40 Seconds
Conclusion: 20 seconds

As far as information goes. The conclusion and introduction you can create on your own.
