A Profile of the Lands and People of South America, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean

The articles in this volume cover the music of people from a vast region of the Western Hemisphere. Here you will find descriptions of the music of all the nations south of the Rio Grande (the river that separates the United States from Mexico); of many native American cultures that continue to thrive as autochthonous and somewhat homogeneous entities within these nations; and of all island states south and just east of Florida.
