Neither Mexico nor Paraguay are in the Andes.......2007-03-21

The blurb inside starts "The Aztec empire and its many highly developed subject populations ..." However, the Aztecs were in Mexico and northern Central America, and had nothing to do with either the Andes or this CD.

The music (at least the first dozen tracks) is basicly Paraguayan harp music transferred to quena and charrango. Even El Condor Pasa is done in that style. Some of the last 10 tracks I won't make any bets where they came from, altho it's possible some are from Bolivia, particularly eastern Bolivia.

I suspect this CD (no date, no author, no musician, no composer listed) is comprised of two unnamed LPs. However, the entire track list matches 'Los Caballeros / Flute Music Of The Andes' (2006) and also 'Los Craneos, Juan Campolargo Ensemble / Flute Music Of The Andes' (no date) - from Gracenote's database of CD tracklists (formerly cddb). My guess is the latter is more likely where it came from.

(If you add two seconds between each track, it will be "seen" as a different CD by cddb because the total length and length of each track are different.)

However, speaking as someone who has a collection of around 400 Andean CDs (admittedly leaning toward northern Ecuador), I wouldn't really call it Andean music. If you like it, try collecting some Paraguayan harp music.

Awesome Andean Music!.......2007-03-18

Growing up in Chile, the music of the Andes was always in the background. This collection of songs takes me home. You can feel the wind, the chill, hear the birds, imagine the rain in these songs. Fantastic CD. Highly recommended.

ALL YOU WILL EVER NEED ON YOUR JOURNEY.......2006-10-15

Okay, so Inti Illimani and WAyanay and INca SOn and the rest are like REALLY GREAT, but this is all you ever need

In fact, track nine Vasija de barro, is everything you ever want to hear for eternity

And even better if you know the words, and the guitar chords and hook. (pretty much Em, B7, Em, G, B7, Em, until the chorus goes to C, and then the cool guitar hook around the Em scale like HEndrix did)

This album really has just about every Inca song you need, including track nine it has Valicha and El Condor Pasa (yes, Paul Simon stole that one and put real dumb ENglish words to it, but here all three movements are included)

A fairly stripped down group of quena, bass, charango and drums, but that's all you need. All anonymous and the worst liner notes ever (calling it AZTEC music- please this is not MEXICO, dude) and no vocals except a few praises for fat hens and other extemporaneous rare exclamations, but nothing to get in the way. THis has the full spectrum of rhythms beats and traditions of Peru, BOlivia (except Zaya and the real urban stuff that would call for sax or trumpet, etc.) and Ecuador, but once again you have nothing but the accurate titles to go by.

Really, this is the only one you need, and it is cheap for being what this music always was: anonymous!

And the best thing is there are no cheesy Zamphir style remakes of American popular music of the seventies and eighties! NO KANSAS!

It's the entire Inca rainbow on one disc. Get it! be healed!

Andean Flute Variety.......2006-07-09

I expected to get a CD of Andean flute music, which I greatly enjoyed hearing on local radio in South America. And this CD delivered! I don't listen to this CD as often as I expected to, probably owing to that it is a collection of different styles and formats rather than a continuous listening format.

I recommend this CD 4 out of 5 stars.

wonderful.......2004-01-17

The compositions herein are comparable to Beethoven in terms of their ability to evoke emotion. However, unlike Beethoven, they are simple and sublime and retain a close connection to nature that is characteristic of all Native American music. I especially like track #15 with its grave and intricate beauty. This is now my favorite song.

Transported.......2000-09-07

Prepare to be transported to the Andes when you listen to this CD. The blend of styles, instruments (traditional & modern) & muscians culminate in a journey for your mind to the Andes. I could feel the crisp thin air as I traveled through Ecuador, Peru, Chile & Bolivia on the wings of each song.

If you want to be transported too. Get this CD

Absolutely Excellent.......1999-09-20

I find this CD to be very relaxing and inspiring. I commonly use it as background music for creating artwork. In my opinion "Andean Legacy" belongs in the collection of ALL Andean music enthusiasts.

Another, haunting kind of "mountain music".......1998-11-23

Being born and raised in Applachia, I was struck by the strong, unexpected parallels between the songs included on this CD and the traditional Bluegrass and Celtic musical traditions I grew up with. Substitute fiddle or hammered dulcimer for flute, and the music of the Andean mountains seems suddenly familiar, as though mountain cultures separated by miles have found a common musical space to inhabit. I have found this CD excellent for meditation and as a background for yoga.

Polished, organized variances of contemporary Andean Music.......1998-08-03

Personally I do not enjoy what seems to be "old, traditional" Andean Music for long periods of time. I find I like a more contemporary, upbeat, arrangement of the use of flutes, churangos, etc. Overall I have enjoyed ANDEAN LEGACY but I do not feel its a pure Andean Music CD. This CD presents Andean music and musical instruments in a contemporary presentation. The CD even has a bit of country music flavor on several songs for those who like that venue. For a person who wants to experience Andean Music this CD provides nice variety and insight what contemporary Andean Music is like. For the person who has CD's on Andean Music, I feel, ANDEAN LEGACY would be a nice enhancement.

Great sounds.......2007-02-24

I really enjoy the CD it is great music to listen to while driving to work. I plan on purchasing other CDs from this group.

Fresh air!.......2007-02-22

Listening to this album makes me feel that delicious fresh air has entered my stuffy winter room! I guess that makes sense, considering the music is from the high Andes. Whooda thunk it? That music would carry the character of its area of origin... seriously it happens a lot. Neato.

Most of the cuts sound pretty much traditional, but there's a little well-done updating here and there; not enough to be offensive or take the performance out of the realm of representative folk, but enough to give a little kick. I really enjoy the sounds of the "quena" flute and "siku" panpipes, which to me give an otherworldly sound, enhanced by the various indigenous percussion instruments and the tinkling stringed "charango". Inkuyo's music renews my hope to travel to the Andes and quietly absorb the local culture.

*BEST* Traditional Music CD of Andes/S.America/Incas.......2004-06-28

Heard Inkuyu's "Land of the Incas" in a "Natural Wonders" Store about 15 years ago and it has been my favorite CD of South America music ever since. The traditional instruments, rhythms and melodies are played with authenticity and joyful exuberance. The liner notes are superb for interpreting the history and origin of the songs. Truly ancient rituals, festivals, and ordinairy life of the Incas come alive in the imagination of the listener. One is transported to another time and culture.

Music in the the diablada, kantu, saya, yaravi, huayao, carnaval, and San Jacinto, rhythms played on the panpipes, quenas, and stringed instruments transmit the energy, beauty, flow of life, joy, sadness and harmony of this unique part of the world. If you can not afford a trip to the Andes Mountains to hear the traditional music of the hidden villages live ... this is the next best thing! Erika Borsos (erikab93)

Wonderful mood uplifter.......2003-12-11

In this album Inkuyo plays a medley of traditional and contemporary compositions with traditional Andean instruments (flute, panpipes, guitar and drums). The tunes are mostly joyful with a few melancholy ones.The music, which is purely instrumental (except for one track),is through and through traditional with no concessions made to New Age or Pop styles.

It is however my opinion that Inkuyo has removed some of the rough edges of popular Andean music to better please our Western ears, at least this is what I feel when I compare the songs on this cd with other folk-music from the Andes that I have.But this is an improvement , not an impoverishment.

The quality of the recording is outstanding and the music a real delight for the ear and the heart. Besides, this is a very long cd:68 minutes! And unlike other albums that only have one or two good songs, every single track of "Land of the Incas" is beautiful and worth listening to. If you like Peruvian music or are looking for music to lift up your spirits, this is definetely a great buy.

A great CD to play along to........2003-07-03

I have been learning to play the panflute for a few months, so I am always on the lookout for new panflute music to play along to. This
CD is by far the best performed and liveliest panflute CD that I have found, and I am having great fun playing along to it.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

El Condor Pasa CD.......2006-07-19

The CD is great and your delivery of this item was exceptional!! I was just as excited when I ordered an iDog through you, I just wish that I had actually received it and could have continued my level of enthusiasm for Amazon.com!!

I'm sorry, but I don't think I will be ordering anything through you for my convenience anymore because this iDog thing cost me more money and aggrevation than if I had just gone out and bought the darn thing myself! But I do have to say that you do have some pretty unusual merchandise that I may consider ordering in the future, but it's going to be a while.

You guys used to be AWESOME!!!! What happened???

I'm putting the iDog issue in this review because I'm pretty sure I won't be getting an email asking me to review my iDog order!! Sorry.

Forgotten treasure from El Dorado.......2002-06-14

Numerous South and Central American folk albums have flooded stores in the past decade as our hunger for the exotic grows, too many to count. Even the number of albums alone named El Condor Pasa can be confusing and distracting. What if someone were to tell you to ignore them all except this one?

This is the album lost in the shuffle of Peruvian, Argentinian and Paraguay music that would be a shame to have missed. Don't believe me? Click on the download samples above and you will hear music that has the heart and soul of the Indian and Mestizo musicians who peformed for the recording. Still don't believe me? Compare the music to any of the other South American folk albums mass produced; feel the rythm and tempo that comes from only those who have passion for their music and its history. There are no lackluster performances on the entire album. Where other albums seem to be dominated by the obvious Pipa flute with a guitar or two to complement or even a "New Age" synthesizer to eradicate any traditional sound , El Condor Pasa reverts to traditional and fun music: miniature ensembles of mariachi guitars of all sizes, a harp-like instrument (zither?) that is invigorating and enchanting, and talented flutists who play in perfect symphony.

Worth it's weight in gold, El Condor Pasa is a steal from Laserlight, it's manufacturer. El Condor Pasa is a journey far south of the border; you can almost visualize Spanish colonial plazas filled with campesinos and young couples courting in the shade of ancient trees. Don't let this treasure slip through your fingers.

Customer Reviews:

Haunting_Beauty.......2005-02-08

Andean Music is, to the American Apple-Pie rock-N-roll ear, an awakening. Much of it is played on what seems to be a guitar with a special sound--except that it is the Charango---and the Charanguista(s) on this album are highly talented. Our familiarity with guitar solos draws us to this alternative "guitar"--and opens us up to a whole new musical world.

No Andean music is complete without the Zamponia and the Kena---pan-pipe and end-blown flute respectively--and there is some superb playing on this album. These istruments, in my opinion, when well played, rival the expression of the best wooden flutes of Europe.

And a bonus is the fiddle playing and singing--so that while not a comprehensive anthology of traditional Andean sound, it is a cross-section which, at the bargain CD price, makes it an absolute must-have.

Modern Meets Ancient.......2004-11-17

 Not a true representation of Peru's many musical styles, perhaps; but a beautiful recording by a very talented group of musicians, with touches of the modern meeting the ancient - especially noticeable in the lovely song 'Mi Cambio' composed by Cesar Villalobos.

The Chilean Group Formed in 1965 Writing Lyrics Inspired by Social Issues Related to Its Country and Combining them with Autochthonous Musical Arrangements. In 1966, the Band Came in First Place at the Festival De Festivales, Releasing Its First Album that Same Year.
