The Participant Observer Music CD of the Month is El Mito de la Pérgola (The Myth of the Bandstand) by Pascuala Ilabaca Y Fauna
There’s been no shortage of female powerhouse singers in South America - think Violeta Parra, Mercedes Sosa, Lila Downs - but now it’s Chilean Pascuala Ilabaca’s turn in the spotlight. The charismatic accordion player and singer demonstrates an impressive vocal range and with her four-piece band, they zip through a myriad of musical genres - from Indian konnakol-style percussive singing through to the high octave yelps, reminiscent of one of Ilabaca’s role models, Yma Sumac. The album’s title translates as ‘The Myth of the Bandstand’ and reflects Ilabaca’s desire to bring music back onto the streets and into communities-Jo Frost, Songlines
