Abstract

This study presents a narrative-critical literature review of the Chirimía Caucana, an ensemble of high cultural relevance in southwestern Colombia, whose recent academic visibility contrasts with the limited organological systematization of its format. The aim was to analyze how literature published between 2020 and 2025 describes its instrumental configuration, intra-ensemble functions, and existing research gaps. Methodologically, searches were conducted in Latindex, Scopus, SciELO, and Web of Science, complemented by reference tracking and selection criteria based on thematic relevance and analytical value. A total of 107 records were reviewed, of which 16 were retained and 7 constituted the main analytical corpus. Findings indicate a consistent recognition of the ensemble as an aerophone-percussion format, although discrepancies remain in the description of its components and functions. It is concluded that a significant gap persists in the comparative organological formalization of the ensemble.
