A comprehensive introduction to the major facets of Latin American music. The text offers lively, engaging narrative appropriate for both music majors and non-music majors. The text will also aim to develop an understanding of Latin American civilization and its relation to other cultures.
The Music of Latin America and the Caribbean is the first text written on the rich musical heritage of this region specifically for the non-music major.  The text is arranged by region, focusing on the major countries/regions (Mexico, Brazil, Peru, etc. in Latin America and Jamaica, the Virgin Islands, Haiti, etc. in the Caribbean).  In each chapter, the author gives a complete history of the region’s music, ranging from classical and classical-influenced styles to folk and traditional music to today’s popular music.
