Cuban Music Counterpoints

Welcome to the companion page for Cuban Music Counterpoints: Vanguardia Musical in Global Networks, published in August 2023 by Oxford University Press. Below you will find Spotify and YouTube playlists of sound recordings and videos related to the content of the book. In time, I will also add links to music scores and other resources for readers and musicians who are interested in finding more information on the music and composers discussed throughout the book.

This project is supported by the University of Miami’s Provost Research Award, University of Miami Institute for the Advanced Study of the Americas Faculty Seed Grant, UM’s Arts and Humanities Fellowship, and UM’s Center for the Humanities Faculty Fellowship.

NEWS: Cuban Music Counterpoints was awarded a Certificate of Merit from the Association for Recorded Sound Collections for their 2024 Award for Excellence in Historical Sound Research in Recorded Classical Music.

Thanks for visiting!
