| Summary |
In this work, Carol A. Hess investigates the reception of Latin American art music in the US during the Pan American movement of the 1930s and 40s. Hess uncovers how and why attitudes towards Latin American music shifted so dramatically during the middle of the 20th century, and what this tells us about the ways in which the history of American music has been written. |
