Description

Explore the rich history of the danzon through this scholarly study from Oxford University Press. This book examines how a dance form that began with nineteenth-century black performers in Cuba grew to become a major musical phenomenon across the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean basin by the early twentieth century. Readers will learn about the hybrid nature of this music and dance complex, which blends European and African elements. The text traces the development of these traditions and their connection to later Latin dance styles and the early jazz scenes in New Orleans. Part of the Currents in Latin American and Iberian Music series, this work provides a deep look at the cultural dialogues that shaped the musical landscape of the region.
