Soul of the Andes: Strings Flutes from Ecuador

CD-Charts > Music > Ecuador
by: Inkhay

Release Date April 07, 1998
Excellent collection of andean music. While all other Amazon customer reviews single out Pepe Santana who is responsible for the wind instruments and some of the rhythm I would like to pay tribute to Atahualpa Poalasin whose harp playing on this album is phenomenal. Note that other recordings by this fine artist are also available from Amazon and others but not under the name "Inkhay" but rather his own name. Be advised that the first name "Atahualpa" is somewhat common among latin american recording artists so be sure you are ordering the works of the harpist and not the guitarist etc.

Salsa from Ecuador

CD-Charts > Music > Ecuador
by: Johnny Guala

Release Date June 22, 2004
This album has the qualities of good mambo and salsa with some tracks possessing slight taste of Andean and Cumbia sounds. Good arrangements with even better refreshing lyrics. Being a bongo player, this album has excellent rhythms from which to experiment.

If you are a connoisseur of great music and want a refreshing taste of smooth salsa than this CD is must for your collection.

A Flor de Tierra

CD-Charts > Music > Ecuador
from: Chaskinakuy

Release Date October 25, 2002
My wife and I had the pleasure of seeing Chaskinakuy when they came through our town recently, and it was during the intermission in which we bought their A Flor De Tierra CD. Like the concert, one gets from the CD an education into the different styles of music of the region, the numerous instruments used, the culture of the people and their history. Sometimes when a group focuses in on one aspect, in this case an academic appreciation of Andean music, another aspect may be sacrificed, such as the soul of the music. That couldn't be further from the case with Chaskinakuy. (Why hasn't Microsoft come up with a Quechuan spellchecker yet!!) The music is so rich with feeling and emotion that I literally got goose bumps from hearing them play live, ... Read More:

Magical Flutes From the Andes

CD-Charts > Music > Ecuador
by: Aconcagua

Release Date August 10, 1999
I love music from the Andes, but was a little dissapointed from this CD> Generally the songs are "nice", but not breathtaking. Good product for someone who has a CD collection and adds this one to it. But I would not recommend it to anyone who wants to get a real taste of the music. It's not original, meaning it has some "westernized" taste to it.
