This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The piano compositions of Reynaldo Fern�ndez Pav�n have caused an impact on us such, that they have reminded of those great nineteenth century masters who made it possible for this instrument to be crowned as the king of all instruments, precisely because the greatest masterpieces encompassed the most genuine aspects of the European popular art of that period. The intrinsic values of an Afro-Cuban culture, stylized and refined, mixed with formal universal elements, are what constitute the fundamental triumph of these masterpieces, and serve as proof that we have among us a composer who has achieved creative maturity with success.Las composiciones de piano de Reynaldo Fern�ndez Pav�n han causado un impacto tal, que nos han recordado a aquellos grandes maestros del siglo XIX que hicieron posible que este instrumento fuera coronado como el rey de todos los instrumentos, precisamente porque las grandes obras maestras abarcaban los aspectos m�s genuinos del arte popular europeo de ese per�odo.Los valores intr�nsecos de una cultura afrocubana, estilizada y refinada, mezclada con elementos universales formales, constituyen el triunfo fundamental de este disco y sirven como prueba de que tenemos entre nosotros un compositor que ha alcanzado la madurez creativa con �xito.

Download or read book Cuba and Its Music written by Ned Sublette and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2007-02 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This entertaining history of Cuba and its music begins with the collision of Spain and Africa and continues through the era of Miguelito Valdes, Arsenio Rodriguez, Benny More, and Perez Prado. It offers a behind-the-scenes examination of music from a Cuban point of view, unearthing surprising, provocative connections and making the case that Cuba was fundamental to the evolution of music in the New World. The ways in which the music of black slaves transformed 16th-century Europe, how the "claves" appeared, and how Cuban music influenced ragtime, jazz, and rhythm and blues are revealed. Music lovers will follow this journey from Andalucia, the Congo, the Calabar, Dahomey, and Yorubaland via Cuba to Mexico, Puerto Rico, Saint-Domingue, New Orleans, New York, and Miami. The music is placed in a historical context that considers the complexities of the slave trade; Cuba's relationship to the United States; its revolutionary political traditions; the music of Santeria, Palo, Abakua, and Vodu; and much more.
