 | Music in Cuba by Alan West-Duraan, Alejo Carpentier, Timothy Brennan
Originally published in 1946 and never before available in an English translating, MUSIC IN CUBA is not only the best and most extensive study of Cuban musical history, it is work of literature in its own right. Drawing on such primary documents as obscure church circulars, dog eared musical scores pulled from attics, and the records of the Spanish colonial authorities, MUSIC IN CUBA sweeps panoramically from the sixteenth into the twentieth century. Carpentier covers European style elite Cuban music as well as the popular worlds of rural Spanish folk and urban Afro Cuban music. In a substantial introduction based on extensive original research, Timothy Brennan explores Carpentier's career prior to the writing of his novels. Looking especially at Carpentier's work as a music reviewer, radio producer, and musical theorist, Brennan suggests new ways of thinking about the role of Latin American artists in Europe between the wars of thinking about the role of Latin American artists in Europe between the wars, and the central place of radio and music club cultures in the European avant gardes.
