“…Not all CNS performers were overtly politically aligned, however, and many CNS compositions reflected issues and artistic themes that were of interest throughout Chilean society, giving the movement a popular appeal that transcended party politics. In fact, in recent years, politicians from both the left and the right have directly referenced CNS in public speeches and campaign advertisements (CNN Chile 2022; Vilchez 2019).…”

The Chilean nueva canción (‘new song’) movement is one of Latin America's most enduring musical phenomena. Strongly associated with the rise of left-wing political forces in the 1960s, and then with anti-dictatorship protests in the 1970s and 1980s, nueva canción is deeply embedded in Chilean political consciousness. This article provides a new perspective on the movement by exploring its populist elements and considering these in relation to Communist Party cultural policy. It focuses on a significant historical moment – the Chilean Communist Party's 1971 Assembly on the Chilean Revolution and the Problems of Culture – to ascertain how the political potential of ‘Chilean new song’ was viewed by this key partner in the Chilean coalition government. Through this examination, this article offers new insight into the political positioning of CNS, illustrating the movement's socio-political role in terms of the broader ideological principles and imperatives of the vía chilena (‘Chilean road’) to socialism.
