| Summary |
This book explores the music and dance of Franciscan and Jesuit mission communities throughout the entire northern frontier of New Spain. Its purpose is to examine the roles music played: in teaching, evangelisation, celebration, and the formation of group identities. This book looks comprehensively at the music of this region and time period, and utilises music as a way to study the cultural interactions between Indians and missionaries. |
