Exile, denunciation, and exoticism: Chilean folk music and its reception in Europe

Exile, denunciation, and exoticism: Chilean folk music and its reception in Europe - 2015.
20
In this article we will reflect on the modalities adopted by the Chilean folk song in Europe, its aesthetic and musical strategies, and how this music was received by European audiences. Although the presence of Chilean music increased after the military coup of September 1973, it is necessary to trace it back to the 1960s when so-called “Andean music” took shape in Paris. This shows us how this relationship founded on an exotic view, although it may sound contradictory, empowered Chilean music during the exile.
