Book Reviews of Cuban Music from A to Z
Book Review: A Treasure of Cuban Music and Musicians
Summary: 5 Stars
How wonderful this book was translated and updated! In its first edition in Spanish, many important Cuban musicians were omitted, mainly due to US-Cuban politics. Orovio's thorough guide gives the 411 on some of Cuba's most important and prolific musicians - including those living in the U.S. and elsewhere, including biographical as well as musicological information. A must have for anyone who loves Cuban music!
