Stick with the real Inti-Illimani and don't waste your money

"A sad debut from self-proclaimed "historic" members of Inti-Illimani who chose to retire from the band years ago and now find it artistically and commercially convenient to appropriate the name of a band that's still going strong without them. Fortunately, the Inti-Illimani known to US audiences--a group whose members span two generations, from founder Jorge Coulon to the newest addition, guitarist Cesar Jara--continues to tour here in celebration of a repertoire with both a past and a future. Look for THE Inti-Illimani at US music festivals this summer and in concerts this autumn and next spring...definitely check out the band's newest CD, Pequeño Mundo, which features brilliant compositions by musical director Manuel Meriño...and don't get suckered into buying a CD by a group that can't do better than pretending to be the real deal."

Inti + Quila

"Es el concierto conjunto de Inti Illimani y Quilapayun historicos. Los grupos que iniciaron su leyenda, no los actuales clones de Wang Group y Coulon Band que profitan de la creacion realizada por otros. El concierto es muy emotivo."
