Thread Name: Inti-Illimani: one has become two
Subject: RE: Inti Illimani Historico
The current line-up of Inti Illimani Historico:
the youngsters:
Danilo Donoso
Fernando Julio -- rhythm section, bass and percussion

Hermes Villa Lobos, flute and wind instruments
Camilo Sanchez, keyboards (son of Horacio)

the old-timers:
Horacio Duran, charango
Horacio Salinas, guitar
Jose Seves, lead vocals and tiple/guitars

This version of Inti-Illimani is preparing to celebrate fifty years of music making (this is positively true of charango-player Duran, who has been there the longest). With repertoire newly written, Inti Illimani Historico will give three concerts in Chile in early June; directly afterwards they will take their new music to Havana, Cuba, and go into the recording studios there, to make their fiftieth-anniversary CD album.
