Habaneras, Maxixes & Tangos
Author: Bill Matthiesen
Publisher: Mel Bay Publications
ISBN: 1609746384
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
This collection showcases the syncopated piano music of Latin American during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It features Latin rhythms, which are really African rhythms brought to the Americas by slaves and applied to the music of the European colonists. These rhythms are varied and complex and so is their history. They've had a widespread and profound influence on the evolution of popular music not only in Latin America, but also in the United States. the most obvious offshoots are the tango in Argentine and Uruguay and most of the other popular dances of South and Central America, as well as ragtime and jazz in the United States. Jelly Roll Morton claimed this Latin tinge is the essential element that distinguishes jazz from ragtime. These rhythms are the musical roots of groups like the Buena Vista Social Club.Includes historic tangos written by Ignacio Cervantes - Cuba, Manuel Saumell - Cuba, Juan Morel Campos - Puerto Rico, Jose Quinton - Puerto Rico, Ernesto Nazareth -Brazil, Tomas Leon - Mexico, Sebastian Yradier - Spain, Eduardo Sanchez du Fuentas - Cuba, Will Tyers - USA, Vincente Greco - Argentina, Anselmo Rosendo (Mendizabal) - Argentina, Angel Villoldo - Argentina, Eduardo Arolas - Argentina, Juan Maglio - Argentina

Mis Investigaciones... y algo Más
Author: Adalberto Afonso Fern Ndez
Publisher: Palibrio
ISBN: 1463305826
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 613
Book Description
«MIS INVESTIGACIONES Y ALGO MAS» es una compilación póstuma, en tres tomos, de cuanto escribió e investigó su autor: ADALBERTO AFONSO FERNANDEZ, en los tres países donde vivió: Cuba, Venezuela y España. Los amantes de la lectura y de la Historia, encontrarán gratificantes estos libros que son, además, una excelente y fidedigna fuente de consulta para inquirir sobre tiempos atrás, llevados por el placer de leer o con propósitos creativos o didácticos. El Tomo I posee los dos primeros capítulos -de los trece en total de la Obra- con una variedad de textos antiguos que salvan para la posteridad mucho de la pretérita vida cultural cubana desde la óptica de la ciudad natal del escritor. "Apuntes para una Cronología de Ciego de Avila" -1538 a 1958- (capítulo 1), y "Ciego de Avila. Hijos Ilustres"(capítulo 2) con ensayos biográficos enriquecidos con antologías, cronologías y publicaciones de la prensa de entonces acerca de figuras cubanas pertenecientes a aquella localidad que se proyectaron más allá de la misma: Vicente Iriondo de la Vara (quien hizo construir el primer teatro de allí; Manuel Diego Venega (poeta repentista) y los escritores y periodistas: Antonio Benedico Rodríguez ; Gabriel Jiménez Lamar y José Muñiz Vergara «El Capitán Nemo» cuyo nombre llevó la primera biblioteca pública del pueblo en 1947. Las fuentes de donde se obtuvieron los datos para la Cronología puede que ya no existan y esto le da un notorio valor a esta publicación: periódicos y revistas de la época y antiguos libros del Ayuntamiento de la ciudad rescatados de los tanques de basura o de ser consumidos por las llamas a principios de la Revolución de 1959.

Musical Topics and Musical Performance
Author: Julian Hellaby
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000815285
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The principal purpose of topics in musicology has been to identify meaning-bearing units within a musical composition that would have been understood by contemporary audiences and therefore also by later receivers, albeit in a different context and with a need for historically aware listening. Since Leonard Ratner (1980) introduced the idea of topics, his relatively simple ideas have been expanded and developed by a number of distinguished authors. Topic theory has now become a well-established branch of musicology, often embracing semiotics, but its relationship to performance has received less attention. Musical Topics and Musical Performance thus focuses on the interface of theory and practice, and investigates how an appreciation of topical presence in a work may prompt interpretative thoughts for a potential performer as well as how performers have responded to such a presence in practice. The chapters focus on music from the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries with case studies drawn from composers as diverse as Beethoven, Scriabin and Péter Eötvös. Using both scores and recordings, the book presents a variety of original and innovative perspectives on the subject from a range of distinguished authors, and addresses a neglected area of musicology and musical performance.
