Extractions: Blue Note 99241 (www.bluenote.com) The interaction between Cuban and North American music has a long history, one that began in New Orleans. In the mid-nineteenth century, Crescent City pianist and composer Louis Moreau Gottschalk traveled throughout the Caribbean, freely incorporating into his compositions the melodies and rhythms of the region's diverse musical traditions ( Louis Moreau Gottschalk , Smithsonian Folkways SF40803). By the 1870s, the habanera bass line, an essential stylistic feature of the Cuban contradanza , was gaining popularity as the first major Latin influence on North American music. First linked via the transatlantic slave trade, as major Caribbean ports separated by a mere 650 miles, Havana and New Orleans swapped musicians, touring acts, instruments and sheet music in a process of cultural exchange extended by twentieth-century recording technology, radio broadcasting and the record business. U.S. firms began recording in Havana in 1906, and many sides found their way north long before the first New Orleans recording sessions in 1923. Of course, ragtime and early jazz were steeped in a Caribbean gumbo as well. Jelly Roll Morton built in

Extractions: Louis Moreau Gottschalk was an American composer and pianist. He is known to have composed two operas, though all that survives is a fragment of the second, Charles X . For this work Gottschalk used part of the libretto to I Capuleti e i Montecchi , originally set by Bellini. A frequent visitor to Cuba, Gottschalk conducted at least part of the opera there in 1860. In Canada in the 19th.century most opera was performed by travelling companies, either from the United States or from Europe. Very little original opera was written, with most performances being European works. One noteworthy performance was of Boieldieu's La Dame Blanche The Widow , written for New Orleans, saw a revival in 1976, in Hamilton, Ontario, Even Canada's own Emma Albani, the first Canadian star in the world of opera, was rarely heard in Canada. She brought her company to Montreal's Academy of Music in 1890 and again in 1892. Angela Peralta 1845 - 1883 In Mexico much of 19th.century opera was also performed by touring companies. One of these companies was led by the Mexican soprano Angela Peralta. After a debut in Mexico Peralta went to Italy in 1861, for further study. She sang at La Scala and Turin and toured Europe, where she was known as the "Mexican nightingale".
Extractions: NOTES This collection of danzas, waltzes, Terra Verde and other syncopated specialties is played brilliantly by ragtime and classical composer/pianist Glenn Jenks. A delightful blend of Latin-American and romantic piano sensibilities, of old and new music, Invitation to the Danza represents the eleventh release of new World Piano Music from Viridiana. The recordings of Viridiana Productions, L.L.C. represent a grass roots movement designed to promote the new music Terra Verde, as well as various traditions from which it draws. Terra Verde, a contemporary and distinctly American musical art form, fuses elements of European romanticism with New World ethnic styles, such as ragtime, jazz, Latin-American and country.The result is a rich and vital language for our time, and a new stage in the evolution of piano-based composition. Viridiana exists to champion the composers and performers of Terra Verde, and to pay tribute to the innovative and sometimes unheralded forerunners to this exciting new realm of American music.
Extractions: AFTER falling in love with the beautiful Cuban music produced by the likes of Reuben Gonzales I have been trying to learn Cuban and salsa style piano and the book I bought to assist me in this task had an interesting chapter on the music of Ninteenth Century Cuba. This album is my first tentative step into the earlier music of Cuba and Ive found it hard to stop playing it. Dont expect many traces of salsa or son styles in this album but I am hearing beautifully gentle, lilting rhythms which put me in mind of palm trees swaying in a gentle breeze.

Extractions: Her Email (Ana Cervantes received a Fulbright-Garcia Robles Award, a joint project of the governments of Mexico and the United States, administered in Mexico, by COMEXUS (the COmmittee MEXico-US). She is living and teaching in the city of Guanajuato and will share her views and experiences in a Mexico Connect mini-series, "The Music of Mexico." These articles were written for Classical New Jersey, the journal of the Classical New Jersey Society, and are reprinted here with permission.) Guanajuato is, and has been for a long time, a centre of culture and education. In one way or another, it has always been prosperous, either through the richness of its farmland or its mines. There was the money to support cultural activities and the desire on the part of the rich mining families and hacendados, I imagine, to live a life that included music and theater and the appurtenances of the cultivated middle and upper class. So, for a city that is small by US standards (73,000 inhabitants), it is rich in exceptional performance venues for music, dance, and theater. There is an abundance of museum and exhibit space, as well as in general everyday public living spaces. It seems to me that almost every other street has its small plazuela or at least a little place with a nice bench where you can sit and take a breather. This is partly the European heritage which is so evident in many parts of Mexico, but also due to the fact that many private living quarters, except for those of the fairly rich, are what most middle class US citizens would deem unacceptably small.

Extractions: Biography: T There is more than a little poetic irony in the fact that among the most perceptive insights into the expansive traditions of 19th and 20th Century Cuban music are those provided by an aging, sightless musician whose shot at global fame comes late in life. Although a father figure of legendary stature among the extended family of Cuban musicians, pianist Frank Emilio's remarkable musicianship and keen sense of melding innovation and tradition have, unfortunately, remained largely outside the glare of the international spotlight of attention that has, in recent years, focused on Cuban culture. T he release of Ancestral Reflections , his new album on Blue Note, may just change all that. Emilio and his hand-picked group of equally accomplished Cuban virtuosos, Los Amigos, add further sonic texture to our appreciation of the music that has captured the world's ear. In the company of such respected musicians as percussionists Federico Arístides "Tata Guines" Soto, Jose Luis "Changuito" Quintana and bassist William Rubalcaba, Emilio and his ensemble swing confidently through a program that expertly blends the cool, delicate sonorities of a concert hall engagement with the rhythmic heat of el barrio
