However, there exists very little biographical literature on Lara in English. This book's informed and informative placement of Lara's work in a broader cultural context presents a reading of the life of this significant musical figure. Lara's career as a media celebrity as well as musician provides an excellent window on Mexican society in the mid-twentieth century and on popular culture in Latin America. 410 0$aCurrents in Latin American & Iberian music. 606 $aComposers$zMexico$vBiography 615 0$aComposers 676 $a780.92 700 $aWood$b Andrew Grant$01081826 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154326003321 996 $aAgustín Lara : a cultural biography$92596764 997 $aUNINA
