Inti-Illimani .:. Pequeño Mundo.:. 2006

Recently, Inti Illimani has evolved to include many newer and younger band members. Likened to an “archetype,” Inti Illimani’s current manifestation is an eight piece ensemble complete with a brand new album, Pequeño Mundo. Pequeño Mundo has yet to be
released in the United States. When it becomes available, fans can expect a perfect balance between the band’s historical legacy and a continued innovativeness. Manuel Meriño, the group’s artistic director, composed one of Pequeño Mundo’s brightest moments; “Rondombe,” a percussion heavy jazz flavored instrumental. Featuring former members and long time collaborators, Pequeño Mundo also harkens back to the early beginnings of Nueva Cancion with a remake of 1965 song by Patricio Manns, “La Guitarrera Que Toca.” Jorge Coulon, the last active founding member, believes that Pequeño Mundo “takes the sound and identity of Inti Ilimani like a starting base, but has a strong presence of the points of view of the younger musicians in the group. The blend between the roots, the strong musical identity and esthetic concept of Inti Illmani and the energy and innovative power of the new generation gives Pequeño Mundo a very special “aura.” It's a very good CD to celebrate 40 years.

As a cross generational group that possesses multiple musical talents, Inti Illimani can put on quite a show. I had the pleasure of seeing them live for the first time in Pasadena when they visited the Beckman Auditorium in October, 2004. Fans remarked with amazement about how every member of the group passed around an array of musical instruments before every song. Their musical arsenal is a reflection of the cultural mosaic that exists in Latin America. Inti Illimani plays over thirty wind, string and percussion instruments from Indigenous, Mestizo, European, and African cultures.
