Pages : 273
Book Description
The ethnically and geographically heterogeneous countries that comprise Latin America have each produced music in unique styles and genres - but how and why have these disparate musical streams come to fall under the single category of "Latin American music"? Reconstructing how this category came to be, author Pablo Palomino tells the dynamic history of the modernization of musical practices in Latin America. He focuses on the intellectual, commercial, musicological, and diplomatic actors that spurred these changes in the region between the 1920s and the 1960s, offering a transnational story based on primary sources from countries in and outside of Latin America. The Invention of Latin American Music portrays music as the field where, for the first time, the cultural idea of Latin America disseminated through and beyond the region, connecting the culture and music of the region to the wider, global culture, promoting the now-established notion of Latin America as a single musical market. Palomino explores multiple interconnected narratives throughout, pairing popular and specialist traveling musicians, commercial investments and repertoires, unionization and musicology, and music pedagogy and Pan American diplomacy. Uncovering remarkable transnational networks far from a Western cultural center, The Invention of Latin American Music firmly asserts that the democratic legitimacy and massive reach of Latin American identity and modernization explain the spread and success of Latin American music.

Book Description
Excerpt from New American Music Reader, Vol. 2 The new american music reader number Two begins the study of stad' nota tion and keys, with their proper signatures. These are introduced at intervals, giving the necessary practice in each before a new key is studied. This plan avoids the confusion experienced when many keys are introduced near together. The new rhythms are and Until 618 time is taken up, the quarter-note is continued as the unit of measurement and the beat note. The exercises and studies are founded on melody, and the songs themselves, unless designated as rote, are to be used as studies for sight-reading. All work is related to and derived from song. Thus the dictation of intervals, of rhythm and its variations, together with the studies in enu'nciation, are drawn from the songs which they precede, and lead directly to their interpretation. The child thus sees the intention, realizes the value and the practical application of this drill, and is willing to work, since his labor results in song.
