  Los Jaivas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Parra brothers met Mario Mutis and Gato Alquinta in their childhood and they started to play music for fun.
The former name of the band was High-bass, but after a while they entered a new phase, more hippie and very South-Americanist, so they decided to change the name to Jaivas (which sounds similar to the word Jaibas, Spanish for crabs).
The band lived in Argentina, after the military government took over in Chile, until 1977, then went to France.

 Essay - Nightlife
Which is exactly what the two keyboard players, Eduardo and Claudio Parra, are to Juanita, who replaced her father, their brother, Gabriel, as the group's drummer after he tragically died in a car crash in Peru in 1982.
There is obviously great communication between the group, which Claudio Parra attributes to them living all together with their families in one huge house, first in Argentina when they left Chile in 1973, and then for the following 10 years in France.
Claudio Parra believes that the future of that culture depends on the creation of a Ministry of Culture, so that "the control is taken out of private hands, and can be given back to the people, a move which requires action from the government."

 LOS JAIVAS Obras De Violeta Parra reviews and MP3
Obras De Violeta Parra is a dramatic re-interpretation of the folk songs of Violeta Parra (a folk singer/socialist activist who was not related to the trio of Parra brothers who formed the backbone of Los Jaivas) and it remains the most exciting progressive album that I've heard that was recorded in the 1980s.
While most of the band are at the top of their game, it is pianist Claudio Parra and drummer Gabriel Parra who shine the brightest here.
Mock horror synth and the trademark rippling piano of Claudio Parra introduce a brilliant Arabic-tinged guitar lead segment which is backed by some notable playing from basisst Mario Mutis, and a pretty fiery display from Gabriel Parra before, nearly 7 minutes into the song, the actual folky original tune of Violeta Parra emerges...

 Ground and Sky review - Los Jaivas - Obras de Violeta Parra
Obras de Violeta Parra is a work from their prime period in the early '80s, three years after their most revered work, the landmark Alturas de Macchu Picchu.
In fact, the second half of the album drags a bit in comparison to the fantastic opening four tracks: still, aside from "El Gavilán," all of the songs are good if not great.
Faithful fans of Alturas de Macchu Picchu, of which there are many, should no doubt make Obras de Violeta Parra their next stop in the oeuvre of Los Jaivas.

 Chile Information Project -- "Santiago Times" -- Political, Environment, Human Rights, Economic News; April 21, 1995   (Site not responding. Last check: )
UDI deputies Pablo Longueira, Jaime Orpis, and Claudio Alvarado say the organization promotes abortion and "a world of less people." They say the archbishop of Concepcion told them of couples working on Tompkins' properties who were asked not to have children.
The politicians wonder whether the seminars organized by Thompkin's foundation and the school it opened in southern Chile are not intended to promote its philosophy, that includes the conception that human life cannot be viewed superior to all other forms of life in nature.
The Violeta Parra Foundation that will administer the cultural center is composed of Violeta's children and grandchildren, and is presided by former Aylwin government minister Enrique Correa.

 The Pehuenche, the World Bank Group and ENDESA S.A.
According to the 1996 Downing report, and to statements that Theodore Downing and Chilean anthropologist Claudio Gonzalez Parra gave to the CfHR on November 22, 1997, three of the families who accepted resettlement packages were indigenous.
In short, Downing found that the small, poverty-stricken band of Pehuenche Indians is, in essence, subsidizing Chilean hydropower development at the cost of their economy, resources and culture.
For the benefit of those who contract the services of anthropologists, restate that an anthropologist's first professional responsibility is not to harm the cultural and human welfare of a host society.

After play being restricted to the midfield for the first 20 minutes, Viraj Salgaocar finally broke the deadlock firing a strong right footer from top of the box, which crashed past the Parra custodian.
Parra did shine in patches where veteran Claudio Pacheco did lots of running in the midfield, but the strong Siolim defense curbed the Parra moves time and again.
In the 32nd minute Sainath Dabolkar made it 3-0 tapping the ball into the nets off Raghu Shirodkar cross from the right flank.
