Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Argentine folk singer and social activist, Mercedes Sosa, was a world-class performer, whose influence went far beyond the borders of music. Blacklisted as being one the most dangerous people to the regime in Argentina in the 1970s, she became the underground reference point for the poor and oppressed, and an icon of democracy who fought South America’s dictators with her voice. Nicknamed, “The Voice of the Voiceless,” Sosa emerged as a legend and a much-loved mother of Latin America. With her powerful voice and compelling stage presence, the Argentine folk singer, Mercedes Sosa, was a world-class performer, whose influence went far beyond the borders of music. Blacklisted as being one the most dangerous people to the regime in Argentina in the 1970s, she became the underground reference point for the poor and oppressed, and an icon of democracy who fought South America’s dictators with her voice. Alongside her lifelong career, which earned her four Grammy Awards, Sosa also worked as Goodwill Ambassador for the children in Latin America and in the Caribbean, and was granted the prestigious position of Vice President of the Earth Council. Nicknamed, “The Voice of the Voiceless,” Sosa emerged as a legend and a much-loved mother of Latin America. Although Mercedes Sosa was one of the most recognized artists in international music, and collaborated with musicians ranging from Luciano Pavarotti, Sting and Joan Baez, she remained an unsung hero outside of Latin America. However, now ten years after her death, Sosa’s legacy continues to shine. Her example of integrity and solidarity lives on and make her a role model who points out the path to a more emphatic and compassionate world. But how did a girl raised in a poor Indian working class family gain such influence? Mercedes Sosa – More than a Song explores the secret behind Sosa’s remarkable impact and reveals how her upbringing, political circumstances and personal tragedies formed her life and her career. Now, ten years after her death, Sosa’s legacy continues to shine. Her example of integrity and solidarity lives on and make her a role model who points out the path to a more emphatic and compassionate world. Her story calls out for the best in all of us. You are about to meet a woman who will inspire you by her courage and authenticity. Translator: Anette Christensen PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con su poderosa voz y su irresistible presencia en el escenario, la cantante folklórica argentina, Mercedes Sosa, era una intérprete de clase mundial, cuya influencia fue mucho más allá de las fronteras de la música. Incluida en la lista negra como una de las personas más peligrosas para el régimen de Argentina en la década de 1970, se convirtió en el punto de referencia subterráneo para los pobres y oprimidos, y en un icono de la democracia que luchó contra los dictadores de América del Sur con su voz. Junto con su carrera de toda la vida, que le valió cuatro premios Grammy, Sosa también trabajó como Embajadora de Buena Voluntad para los niños en América Latina y el Caribe, y se le otorgó el prestigioso puesto de Vicepresidenta del Consejo de la Tierra. Apodada "La voz de los sin voz", Sosa surgió como una leyenda y una madre muy querida de América Latina. Aunque Mercedes Sosa fue una de las artistas más reconocidas en la música internacional y colaboró con músicos de la talla de Luciano Pavarotti, Sting y Joan Baez, ella siguió siendo una heroína desconocida fuera de América Latina. Sin embargo, ahora diez años después de su muerte, el legado de Sosa continúa brillando. Su ejemplo de integridad y solidaridad sigue vivo y la convierte en un modelo a seguir que señala el camino hacia un mundo más empático y compasivo. ¿Pero cómo una niña criada en una familia pobre de la clase trabajadora india obtuvo tanta influencia? Mercedes Sosa, Una Leyenda explora el secreto detrás del notable impacto de Sosa y revela cómo su educación, circunstancias políticas y tragedias personales formaron su vida y su carrera. Se encuentra a punto de conocer a una mujer que lo inspirará con su coraje y autenticidad. ''En su voz, la vida se convierte en canción con un aroma a esperanza tan dulce y hermoso como la flor que crece en los caminos de aquellos que buscan''. ''En este trabajo encontrarás una nueva y conmovedora perspectiva de nuestra amada Mercedes. Es un sincero y afectuoso tributo en honor de la vida de mi madre. Gracias, Anette, por todo tu esfuerzo, en el nombre de la Fundación Mercedes Sosa''. -Fabián Matus, hijo de Mercedes Sosa y presidente de la Fundación Mercedes Sosa.

Book excerpt: As the fastest growing sector of the U.S. music market, world music has embedded itself in the fabric of American life. Artists such as Peter Gabriel, Paul Simon and the Talking Heads have all utilized characteristics of the "world" sound in their music, while international performers are enjoying unexpected fame in the U.S. At the same time, in an era of unprecedented immigration and globalization, people all over the world are using music as way to preserve their local and ethnic identity. Global Minstrels: Voices of World Music is an accessible introduction to international music and culture. Including conversations with dozens of artists from five continents, it explores the breadth of the world music experience through the voices of the musicians themselves. In the process, it gives a unique view of the interactions of a globalizing society and introduces readers to some of the most fascinating and thoughtful artists working on the current scene. Artists profiled include Oumou Sangare, Caetano Veloso, Ravi Shankar, Paco de Lucía, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, and many more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America in the 1960s and 1970s underwent a profound and often violent process of social change. From the Cuban Revolution to the massive guerrilla movements in Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, Colombia, and most of Central America, to the democratic socialist experiment of Allende in Chile, to the increased popularity of socialist-oriented parties in Uruguay, or para-socialist movements, such as the Juventud Peronista in Argentina, the idea of social change was in the air. Although this topic has been explored from a political and social point of view, there is an aspect that has remained fairly unexplored. The cultural—and especially musical—dimension of this movement, so vital in order to comprehend the extent of its emotional appeal, has not been fully documented. Without an account of how music was pervasively used in the construction of the emotional components that always accompany political action, any explanation of what occurred in Latin America during that period will be always partial. This bookis an initial attempt to overcome this deficit. In this collection of essays, we examine the history of the militant song movement in Chile, Uruguay, and Argentina at the peak of its popularity (from the mid-1960s to the coup d’états in the mid-1970s), considering their different political stances and musical deportments. Throughout the book, the contribution of the most important musicians of the movement (Violeta Parra, Víctor Jara, Patricio Manns, Quilapayún, Inti-Illimani, etc., in Chile; Daniel Viglietti, Alfredo Zitarrosa, Los Olimareños, etc., in Uruguay; Atahualpa Yupanqui, Horacio Guarany, Mercedes Sosa, Marian Farías Gómez, Armando Tejada Gómez, César Isella, Víctor Heredia, Los Trovadores, etc., in Argentina) are highlighted; and some of the most important conceptual extended oeuvres of the period (called “cantatas”) are analyzed (such as “La Cantata Popular Santa María de Iquique” in the Chilean case and “Montoneros” in the Argentine case). The contributors to the collection deal with the complex relationship that the aesthetic of the movement established between the political content of the lyrics and the musical and performative aspects of the most popular songs of the period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Oxford Handbook of Community Singing shows in abundant detail that singing with others is thriving. Using an array of interdisciplinary methods, chapter authors prioritize participation rather than performance and provide finely grained accounts of group singing in community, music therapy, religious, and music education settings. Themes associated with protest, incarceration, nation, hymnody, group bonding, identity, and inclusivity infuse the 47 chapters. Written almost wholly during the 2020-21 COVID-19 pandemic, the Handbook features a section dedicated to collective singing facilitated by audiovisual or communications media (mediated singing), some of it quarantine-mandated. The last of eight substantial sections is a repository of new theories about how group singing practices work. Throughout, the authors problematize the limitations inherited from the western European choral music tradition and report on workable new remedies to counter those constraints"--
