Description

This Routledge Research in Music volume explores the profound cultural and economic intersections of samba, blues, and jazz across Brazil and America. The work examines how these three influential music genres developed within frameworks of love, money, and race, revealing the socio-political contexts that shaped their evolution and global impact. Drawing on rigorous academic research, the book traces connections between African-rooted musical traditions and their divergent paths through distinct cultural landscapes, investigating how economic forces and racial dynamics influenced artistic expression, audience development, and commercial success. Essential reading for musicologists, cultural historians, and anyone seeking deeper understanding of how these genres reflected and responded to the social realities of their times and communities.
