The Music of Latin America and the Caribbean is the first text written
on the rich musical heritage of this region specifically for the
non-music major. The text is arranged by region, focusing on the major
countries/regions (Mexico, Brazil, Peru, etc. in Latin America and
Jamaica, the Virgin Islands, Haiti, etc. in the Caribbean). In each
chapter, the author gives a complete history of the region’s music,
ranging from classical and classical-influenced styles to folk and
traditional music to today’s popular music.
