This is a collection of invocations played on traditional Andean instruments. They are for the deities of INTI, the religion of the pre-Columbian peoples known as the Kechuas. The Kechua people have occupied the Altiplano region of South America (Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile and Ecuador) for thousands of years and still survive there today. Jorge Alfano, a native of Buenos Aires, Argentina spent most of his life studying many forms of music and searching for the higher purpose in life. This form of music has led Jorge back home. "Jorge's music is ancient and modern-his flute touches the soul with elegance, compassion and joy."...Steve Gorn. Note: Part of the proceeds from this recording go to Samana Wasi, a foundation which provides food, shelter and spiritual education for children and elderly in need.
Composer, and multi-instrumentalist Jorge Alfano takes us on a very special journey on which the ancient Andean and South American cultures find new expressions, and the flame of a living tradition is rekindled in a new form. Using both pre-Colombian and contemporary instruments in his work, Alfano is able to express the need to preserve the legacy of his culture, and at the same time present it in a contemporary idiom. “Chasky” Messenger of Light delivers an ancestral message through music a message that we must now hear. Includes Kenas, Peruvian whistling vessels, Ronrocos, Armonio, Shaman?s whistles and rattles, Andean Harp, Mocse?o, Charango, Bombos, ceramic drums, Accordion, and other instruments.All songs composed by Jorge Alfano Recorded at Sacred Sounds Institue USA Mixed and Mastered by Randy Crafton at Crafty Productions Produced by Jorge Alfan Executive Producer: Nick Fritsch Photos by Stella Fuse and Jorge Alfano Copyright 2000 Lyrichord Discs, Inc.
