MY FAVORITE BAND: ILLAPU (MUSIC)

¡Hello everyone !
Today I will tell you about my favorite band.
 
ILLAPU is a renowned folk music group root born in 1971 in the city of Antofagasta, located in the second region. Born with the aim of rescuing the melodies, instruments and songs associated with the Andean culture.

Ther musical work has not only built on the rescue of the Andean melodies, but it has also been portrayal of various historical moments, political and social rights that are part of Chilean history, representing
 thus demands and prospects of the least considered social classes. Thus it manages to consolidate in the 70s, despite the military dictatorship that ran through Chile in those years, always being precursors to achieve a return effective to the democracy, through songs made with metaphors expressing this message.

This social commitment is one of the keys that articulates the success of this family group and its trajectory known internationally, especially in Latin America.

As for ther music, It is characterized by incorporating into their songs "games of voices", alternating high and low tones, and combines different rhythms and letters with a great social content.

Within its repertoire includes the following songs: 
Lejos del Amor, Vuelvo Para Vivir, Volarás, 
"Candombe para José", para nombrar algunas. 
 

¡Long live chilean music!
