Centro Cultural Imbabura

Click image for song
"Jatunpamba"


Centro Cultural Imbabura is an Andean band that promotes traditional indigenous music and dance of Ecuador's northern Andes. Wind instruments, especially the bamboo Andean flute, define their music, which often tells Ecuador's history in its lyrics.

"Centro Cultural Imbabura: Music of the Ecuador", the group's first album, features 12 tracks in a mix of Spanish and the native Quichua language. Titles include in Quechua, Pacha Mama (Mother Earth), as well as Spanish songs Creer al Padre (Trust God), María Traicionera (Maria the Traitor), Me Dejaste (You Left Me) and A Mi Lado (Next to Me).

The band has been at the center of a diverse musical scene in Imbabura province, but with its new CD, Centro Cultural Imbabura hopes to make its mark on international radio stations.

The CD was recorded with the support of Héctor Morales, Segundo Córdova, José Morán and Luis Morales.

The band is part of a musical network from Imbabura province, including Grupo Añoranza (Añoranza Band), Banda Municipal de Cotacachi (Cotacachi's Municipal Band) and others that promote the Pacha Mama culture by staging regular events.
