Listening to New World History --Notes --References --IndexLong a taboo subject among critics, rhythm finally takes center stage in this book's dazzling, wide-ranging examination of diverse black cultures across the New World. Martin Munro's groundbreaking work traces the central-and contested-role of music in shaping identities, politics, social history, and artistic expression. Starting with enslaved African musicians, Munro takes us to Haiti, Trinidad, the French Caribbean, and to the civil rights era in the United States. Along the way, he highlights such figures as Toussaint Louverture, Jacques Roumain, Jean Price-Mars, The Mighty Sparrow, Aimé Césaire, Edouard Glissant, Joseph Zobel, Daniel Maximin, James Brown, and Amiri Baraka. Bringing to light new connections among black cultures, Munro shows how rhythm has been both a persistent marker of race as well as a dynamic force for change at virtually every major turning point in black New World history.Music of the African diaspora ;14.Black peopleCaribbean AreaMusicHistory and criticismAfrican AmericansMusicHistory and criticismElectronic books.Black peopleMusicHistory and criticism.African AmericansMusicHistory and criticism.780.89/960729Munro Martin870009MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459903103321Different drummers2488842UNINA
