Long A Favorite On Dance Floors In Latin America, The Porro, Cumbia, And Vallenato Styles That Make Up Colombia'S Msica Tropical Are Now Enjoying International Success. How Did This Musicwhich Has Its Roots In A Black, Marginal Region Of The Countrymanage, From The 1940S Onward, To Become So Popular In A Nation That Had Prided Itself On Its White Heritage? Peter Wade Explores The History Of Msica Tropical, Analyzing Its Rise In The Context Of The Development Of The Broadcast Media, Rapid Urbanization, And Regional Struggles For Power. Using Archival Sources And Oral Histories, Wade Shows How Big Band Renditions Of Cumbia And Porro In The 1940S And 1950S Suggested Both Old Traditions And New Liberties, Especially For Women, Speaking To A Deeply Rooted Image Of Black Music As Sensuous. Recently, Nostalgic, 'Whitened' Versions Of Msica Tropical Have Gained Popularity As Part Of Governmentsponsored Multiculturalism.Wade'S Fresh Look At The Way Music Transforms And Is Transformed By Ideologies Of Race, Nation, Sexuality, Tradition, And Modernity Is The First Booklength Study Of Colombian Popular Music.
