Carlos
Arredondo's Fabula
For
A Better Understanding of Latin America
Traditions,
survival, memory, identity
and solidarity
Since my coming to Scotland in 1974 I have worked hard to maintain in
this country my Chilean identity in the frame work of our traditions amid
the political struggle against the Pinochet dictatorship. To play music
was for me a way to survive in the best manner possible a very difficult
situation dealing with me and my country.
