Tal sentido fue plasmado en la prensa afroporteña contemporánea y hace foco en qué estética suscribir, la cual puede entenderse como un campo de tensión tradición (africanía) versus modernidad (europeísmo). Denomino a esta modalidad estética de la (in)diferencia a fin de abogar por un equilibrio entre las perspectivas eurocentristas y las afrocentristas. Desde esta perspectiva, este estudio permite problematizar la emergencia de un nuevo sujeto histórico, el criollo, producto del mestizaje biológico-cultural que signó la occidentalización de América a partir de la intrusión europea.","PeriodicalId":41979,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN MUSIC REVIEW-REVISTA DE MUSICA LATINOAMERICANA","volume":"36 1","pages":"170 - 193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2015-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71339470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His correspondence as well as other archived documents provide fascinating glimpses into his methods of collecting music and establishing an archive. These glimpses, in turn, help us understand not only Robb and his overall oeuvre better but also, specifically, the way his music collection was assembled—a key endeavor since, as various scholars have argued, an archival collection’s degree of usefulness increases as users understand the way the archive was put together. This article is an exercise in “archival ethnography”: my aim is to explore and contextualize Robb as one individual involved in a wider academic culture of musical and cultural preservation through archival collections.","PeriodicalId":41979,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN MUSIC REVIEW-REVISTA DE MUSICA LATINOAMERICANA","volume":"36 1","pages":"231 - 258"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2015-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71339346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The March passed along Enlightenment ideals cherished by certain 1810 revolutionaries while also establishing value distinctions between Patriots and Royalists, and projecting a sense of “national” unity, centered in Buenos Aires, by means of Hispanic patriotic musical topics later than 1808. Most topics reinforce the poem, yet some seemingly contradict it. They thus open a window onto the subjectivity of a composer whose agreement with his work does not seem complete and whose positioning vis-à-vis the “new nation” of which he sings is ambivalent.","PeriodicalId":41979,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN MUSIC REVIEW-REVISTA DE MUSICA LATINOAMERICANA","volume":"36 1","pages":"1 - 39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2015-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.7560/LAMR36101","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71339256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Closer scrutiny of these epic histories and the omitted ties to the legacy of the nationalist school indicates that El Sistema’s story relies on the idealization of symphonic practice as “universal” practice and on Abreu’s hyperidealization of the same as “transformative” tool.","PeriodicalId":41979,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN MUSIC REVIEW-REVISTA DE MUSICA LATINOAMERICANA","volume":"36 1","pages":"68 - 93"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2015-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.7560/LAMR36103","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71339298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article examines the conditions within which that perception initially became widespread, by discussing the uproar that ensued in 1973 in response to Jaime Torres’s performance in the film Argentinísima. I argue that this Bolivian reaction was linked not only to local nationalist apprehensions over Argentine musical folklorists’ Andean-inspired repertoire but also to urban Bolivian musicians’ assimilation of Argentine folkloric-popular music practices. My goals are to offer a critical analysis of the Argentinísima controversy and to illuminate the historical context within which Bolivia’s presently ubiquitous nationalist discourse concerning transnational musical appropriation arose.","PeriodicalId":41979,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN MUSIC REVIEW-REVISTA DE MUSICA LATINOAMERICANA","volume":"35 1","pages":"197 - 227"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2014-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.7560/LAMR35202","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71339203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
