Artists/Chile

Chile

Chilean folk music blends Spanish colonial heritage with indigenous Mapuche traditions and Andean influences. The cueca, a courtship dance performed with handkerchiefs, is Chile's national dance. The nueva canción movement of the 1960s and 70s gave Chilean music international significance.
