Fernando Ortiz (18811969) is recognized as one of the most influential Latin American authors of the twentieth century. Although he helped establish the field of Afrodiasporic studies, his writings are still relatively unknown to the Englishspeaking world. In Fernando Ortiz on Music, accomplished ethnomusicologist Robin Moore has collected and translated an essential selection of Ortizs publications. These essays on AfroCuban expressive culture, music and dance are now available for the first time in English.Ortizs writings are accompanied by an extended introduction that contextualizes the authors life, intellectual influences, and collaborators as well as his fieldwork and interviews. Fernando Ortiz on Music also charts the writers changing views of black heritage through the years. This comprehensive anthology, which includes examples of his early scholarship as well as publications from the 1940s and 50s, extends the life and legacy of this important and underknown scholar of Latin American and Caribbean music.Contributors include: David Garcia, Sarah Lahasky, Cary Peate, Susan Thomas, and the editor
