Kifak Inta [Import]

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
La vie de Fairouz est une aventure prodigieuse, depuis les premiers chants qu'elle fredonne en petite écolière jusqu'à son rôle de Phèdre du Liban, tragique et somptueuse quand son pays, longtemps surnommé la Suisse du Moyen-Orient, est ravagé par la guerre civile. Elle refuse pourtant de le quitter alors qu'on lui propose un exil doré à l'étranger. Issu d'un milieu pauvre d'un quartier modeste de Beyrouth, Fairouz est devenue le symbole identitaire d'un pays nouveau et où la musique reste le meilleur trait d'union, à l'exemple de Kifa Inta ("Comment vas-tu ?") qui lui ressemble tant. C'est un album où la voix de la diva transcende toutes les confessions et apaise toutes les rancoeurs. --Bouziane Daoudi

      Album Details

      For Well Over 30 Years, Inti-illimani (The Name Translates as "Sun God") Has Held a Beacon for Chilean Music, Both the Traditional Folk Styles and the More Contemporary Nueva Cancion. Taking their Name from the Aymaran Indian Language of the Andes, They'd Grown Into a Political Beast Being Quite Outspoken Lyrically Enough to Be Forced Into Exile. They Soon Based Themselves in Rome and Earned a Powerful Reputation around the Globe Becoming Very Unofficial Ambassadors of Chilean Music, as Well as Opponents to the Ruling Regime. In Addition to Performing with a Number of Famous, Political Figures Like Pete Seeger and Mikis Theodorakis, They were Included on the Famous 1988 Amnesty International Tour, Along with Sting, Peter Gabriel, and Bruce Springsteen.

        4 out of 5 stars beautiful music.......2007-01-30

        This is a brilliant album - Inti-Illimani, John WIlliams, Paco Peña? C'mon! This is music that will reward patient listeners. This is deeply soulful, social protest music. Non-Spanish speakers should try to track down the lyrics and find a way of translating them, to appreciate the meaning and the sentiment.
        As for the reviewer who copies and pastes the same review for all his reviews of Inti-Illimani's discs... "...the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende..." - I don't think one line in a review makes it a political venue, but you have just made it into one with your few paragraphs praising Pinochet.

        4 out of 5 stars Let us learn to appreciate their great music without..........2005-12-30

        It has been an enormous pleasure to listen to Inti Illimani for the past 20 years. Definitely great musicians and great recordings, to say the least. However the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende and call his deplorable and failed communist period in power exciting, and Pinochet's years "the frightening Pinochet years" (read reviews under The Best of Inti Illimani), can only come from the twisted mind of someone who still believes in 20th Century myths: the myth of Fidel Castro, the myth of Che Guevara, the myth of the proletariat, etc. Having survived 11 years in a communist country I know better, a lot better. All of us should by now. Unfortunately we do not. Look at Venezueza and now Bolivia, with the two puppets in power dancing to the music of Fidel Castro.
        Frightening years for whom? For the communists and all members of the red tribe of disciples of Fidel Castro, of course. Today, to still call Pinochet a dictator and Fidel Castro "president" is beyond comprehension. Look at Chile today. Can anyone believe it could have become what it is now without eliminating Allende's regime and crushing the communists?
        I give Inti Illimani an A for their music. Let us learn to appreciate their great music without praising their disastrous and failed political views. For that, they get capital F.

        5 out of 5 stars INTI'S MASTERWORK.......2005-11-13

        I used to buy Inti's LPs when I was 12 and I was schooling in Italy.
        It still remains one of my favourite musical groups of all time.
        Fragments of a Dream is, simply put, their masterwork, the one where Horacio Salinas reaches the greatest heights of inspiration in a blend I would call, at times, "modern Latin American baroque".
        It starts with a piece inspired by my fatherland's folk music, Sardegna, and ends with a dismantling-cum-reconstruction of the principle of the dance worthy of any great classical composer. Brilliant

        5 out of 5 stars Manns, Salinas, Peña, Williams, Inti una gran combinación........2000-05-08

        Esta reunión increible de músicos en Europa consagra a los Inti Illimani como artistas de mentalidad muy abierta, pues comparten trabajo con grandes personajes de la guitarra. Horacio Salinas despierta el punto de encuentro para exponer una hermosa obra que son lo más fiel del título del album FRAGMENTOS DE UN SUEÑO, primera parte de un gran trabajo que continuará en Leyenda.

        5 out of 5 stars Quisiera ser paloma para volar.......1999-05-07

        Se me saltaron las lagrimas escuchando En Libertad (son ya demasiados años fuera de mi tierra). Inti-Illimani buceando en sus raices hispanas, Inti-Illimani haciendo lo que saben hacer como pocos grupos en estos dias: crear musica con raices, de esa que te inunda el corazon de tristeza, de alegria, de melancolia, de nostalgia, de deseos de vivir.

        Early in their formation, the engineering students that were Inti-Illimani (pronounced "intee-E-gee-manee") explored not only the music of their homeland of Chile, but also the native culture of Argentina, Peru, and surrounding countries. This research led to a 30-year career that's produced a bounty of diverse music from Latin America and is why one hears everything from son folk to Andean pan flutes in the ensemble's repertoire. Listeners unfamiliar with the eight-member group whose instrumentation includes such familiar tools as guitar and clarinet and such exotic ones as the quena (a reed flute) and rondador (reed pan flute) have an opportunity to taste the varied flavors of its breezy, romantic music. Over the years Inti have consistently penned sociopolitical lyrics addressing human rights with an undying optimism, an outgrowth in part of their exile from Chile in 1973. Whatever the history, this album provides a spirited and comprehensive introduction to a group of musicians who've created some of the most moving Latin music of the last 30 years. --Karen K. Hugg

        How exciting to hear such a talented group of musicians with such diverse songs! I understand this isn't their best cd, but I'm not into the political message, just the music and boy is it good.

        1 out of 5 stars I don't need to listen it.......2002-09-19

        I don't need to listen it. I'm a chilean fan of this group and I can't understand why somebody choose this songs. Where is alturas, chiloe, vuelvo, la exiliada del sur, sambalando, mercado testaccio, señora chichera? Any single disc is better than this selection.

        1 out of 5 stars The Best of Inti-Illimani.......2001-09-11

        Formed in the late 1960's by university students and performing primarily in Chile through the exciting Allende years and then performing in exile through the frightening Pinochet years, Inti-Illimani became the leader of the Chilean "new song" movement. Using native instruments like the charango and quena, folk rhythms and harmonies, and varied themes, Inti-Illimani became the leading proponent of native music of Chile and the Andean highlands and, in a logical progression, then the leading proponent of folk-based music of social content and social statement. With Inti's varied and high-quality output, it is not possible to pick a "best" CD or even best song from this period.

        Unfortunately, someone (probably in the distribution company) misnamed this CD. It cannot be called the "best" of Inti-Illimani because it is not a selection made from Inti's earlier folk-inspired or social content music. Sadly, it is not the "best" in the musical sense as well.

        This CD appears to be an attempt to perform the complex sounds and rhythms of the music of Cuba and the Caribbean -- a difficult undertaking at best -- and it falls short in the endeavor. Rhythms, harmonies, and counterpoints are not maintained. They certainly do not come through well when played on the instruments of the highlands, which are not suited to this music. Melodic lines are hard to follow and, in several instances, actually cease to exist.

        To call this CD the "best" of Inti-Illimani is a disservice to its earlier, and far finer, recordings. It is a substantial disappointment in almost all respects.

        5 out of 5 stars Un disco de grandes exitos para un gran grupo........2000-06-08

        Esta recopilación de exitos viene de la serie de discos realizados tras terminar su exilio en Italia y volver a Chile. Tras años de destierro desde 1973 a 1988, hacen de 1989 el año del regreso. Es un Chile distinto del que ellos partieron. Un mercado o industria complicado, el cual aún hoy, solo les deja un pequeño espacio de difusión. Los Inti se replantearon su linea de trabajo y paso a paso, encontrando su camino, llegando a sus ANDADAS(1993), a presentaciones extensas en el mundo y pocas en Chile, pues aquí, les cuesta aceptar masivamente su propuesta musical. Recién en 1997 reeditaron en Chile algunos de sus discos del exilio en Italia, en forma ordenada, aunque sin letras y pocos datos. Llega 1996 y dejan su ARRIESGARE LA PIEL como una identidad con las buenas letras, y un afirmar el sonido acústico desenchufado como base de su estilo. Expresan su firmeza en la difusión de la música latinoamericana, de la manera más amplia, boleros, rancheras, cuecas, etc., tal como se los dejó en herencia Víctor Jara. Expuesto claramente en los albumes multifacéticos de LEJANIA(1998) y AMAR DE NUEVO(1998). En 1999 editan la cantata LA ROSA DE LOS VIENTOS, con orquesta y coros y el album SINFONICO, todo este disco acompañado con orquesta. El 11 de junio de 2000 se presentaron en el teatro Municipal de Santiago de Chile con estas dos obras en vivo. Un nuevo Inti que recuerda a Víctor Jara con dos grabaciones, y un exponente de creación e interpretación soberbios. Aunque quedó en el camino de la transición o este periodo a Eugenio Llona, Renato Freyggand, José Seves y Max Berrú. Y llegaron los nuevos integrantes Daniel Cantillana, Efren Viera y el regreso del venezolano Jorge Ball. Un nuevo Inti y unos nuevos grandes exitos. THE BEST OF INTI ILLIMANI, una nueva época, un nuevo mundo. Sorprendete con las letras de Patricio Manns, la música de Horacio Salinas y la fuerza de INTI. Ojalá en algún pais del mundo coloquen toda su discografía los Inti illimani, y nos haga hacerlas tanta busqueda al planeta para encontrar sus obras. En Chile esperamos la reedición de sus discos preexilio en forma ordenada, con sus letras correspondientes y datos fidedignos.

        Chilean traditional music septet Inti-Illimani have spent the last 30 years mixing together South American folk styles and a human-rights oriented political agenda. Taking on the largely string-oriented folk music of the Andes Mountains, Inti-Illimani surround their often unison Spanish vocals with rainstorms of guitars, charangos, ronrocos, and guitarrons. In doing so, the group celebrates the everydayness of Andean music and culture--striking a chord of solidarity with global folk cultural struggles. --Andy Bartlett

        Un disco no editado en Chile, aquí en el año 2000, ojalá lo hagán pronto. Es una obra excelente de recopilación y muestreo de la América Andina, además de escuchar la creación de Horacio Durán y Pedro Villagra, y el último trabajo junto al grupo de José Seves, la voz inconfundible de los Inti durante muchos años.

        Es curioso, he visto a Quilapayun incontables veces cuando vivia en la Españas pero tuve que venirme a los EEUU para poder disfrutar al fin de la musica en vivo de Inti-Illimani, Fue en el 94 cuando presentaron Andadas y ahora en nov 98 cuando presentaron este otro trabajo, Lejania. Fue ambas veces en UCSD y ambas veces fue memorable. Lejania, como cualquier otro trabajo de Inti-Illimani es oro puro. Totalmente recomendado para los muchos infelices que, como yo, seguimos luchando por que vuestro continente y esa España que tanto me duele vivan algun dia felices. Gracias por tantos buenos momentos.

          More than three decades together have made Inti-Illimani one of Chile's great groups. On Amar de Nuevo, they explore the heritage of Latin American Creole music in lush, sensual arrangements that sound as if they've come directly from the '40s or '50s--quite remarkable for what are mostly original compositions. There's a real fresh beauty to the sound, with instrumental lines extending like tendrils over the vocals. The fact that this comes from no single national tradition, but encompasses all Latin culture, offers a rich variety of style. Once again, the band has proved the master of everything it attempts, making it all seem so easy and relaxed. If you want to know what romance might sound like, this is the perfect place to start. --Chris Nickson

          4 out of 5 stars Let us learn to appreciate their great music without..........2006-01-05

          It has been an enormous pleasure to listen to Inti Illimani for the past 20 years. Definitely great musicians and great recordings, to say the least. However the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende and call his deplorable and failed communist period in power exciting, and Pinochet's years "the frightening Pinochet years" (read reviews under The Best of Inti Illimani), can only come from the twisted mind of someone who still believes in 20th Century myths: the myth of Fidel Castro, the myth of Che Guevara, the myth of the proletariat, etc. Having survived 11 years in a communist country I know better, a lot better. All of us should by now. Unfortunately we do not. Look at Venezueza and now Bolivia, with the two puppets in power dancing to the music of Fidel Castro.
          Frightening years for whom? For the communists and all members of the red tribe of disciples of Fidel Castro, of course. Today, to still call Pinochet a dictator and Fidel Castro "president" is beyond comprehension. Look at Chile today. Can anyone believe it could have become what it is now without eliminating Allende's regime and crushing the communists?
          I give Inti Illimani an A for their music. Let us learn to appreciate their great music without praising their disastrous and failed political views. For that, they get capital F.

          5 out of 5 stars Un album de sorpresas y con sabor a Latinoamérica........2000-05-15

          Es verdad que los Inti procesan su entorno y descubren cual es el trabajo que debe realizarse. Amar de nuevo, es la continuación lógica de Arriesgaré la piel. Un trabajo con base en el sentimiento trágico de América Latina, el canto de amor y desamor, como lo hacía Violeta Parra, y continuando el tipo de trabajo que les exigia Victor Jara en su tiempo. O sea volver a las raíces del canto popular americano, sacando el jugo a cada rincón, y con las letras expertas de Patricio Manns. Un trabajo inmejorable.

          5 out of 5 stars Uno de los mejores albumes de Inti-Illimani.......2000-04-26

          La persona que escribio arriba seguramente tiene un concepto muy rigido sobre lo que debe ser Inti-Illimani, sin entender que este grupo, al igual que muchos otros (Illapu y Quilapayun, por ejemplo), ha tenido que evolucionar, considerando ademas que la situacion imperante en Chile es diferente de aquella existente hace mas de 25 años. Por otro lado, no considero que esta evolucion signifique necesariamente un retroceso o concesion en sus convicciones de lucha, sino mas bien, la necesidad de continuar esa lucha por cauces diferentes.

          Respecto al Amar de Nuevo, me parece un excelente disco. Todas y cada una de sus letras son magnificas, y la musica es grandiosa, un justo acompañamiento al gran trabajo creativo de Patricio Manns. Me parece fabuloso este disco con canciones de amor y desamor, sin que parezca cursi, trillado o siquiera aburrido. Mi recomendacion es que, si tienes oportunidad, lo compres y lo disfrutes.

          3 out of 5 stars Lamentablemente estan decayendo.......1999-11-20

          Es una música demasiado tradicional y común, aunque siguen con el virtuosismo instumental, lo están desperdiciando haciendo esa clase de música.

            Music so hauntingly beautiful, poetry so powerful and so sad you want to cry. Buy this CD and while you are about it get the other CDs of Isabel Parra's mother, Violetta Parra. Even after 30 years these are my favourite songs,Bold Plum: with the Guerillas in China's War against Japan
