The leading book post-revolutionary Cuban musicBy AmeripenThis is the definitive book on the relationship between the 1959 Revolution and Cuban music. It presents a picture that dozens of other books on the subject fail to paint; and touches every question you may have. It not a thrilling read; but if you have an interest in the subject I reckon you will enjoy it.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Highly recommendedBy AngeI totally agree with the 2011 reviewer; and could not see the problems identified by the earlier reviewer. Its rare that an academic text is so readable. I have read all three of Dr Moores texts on Cuba now; and highly recommend them to anyone interested in Cuban music; for their comprehensive coverage and readable style. Music and Revolution gives many insights into Cuban culture generally; particularly Afro-Cuban traditions. Whenever it made comments of a political nature; I found them refreshingly balanced.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Compelling readBy Le CorbusierThis is an enthralling and compelling read from a very accomplished musician; and truly dedicated and innovating ethnomusicologist. Dr. Moore is truly a great in his field.
