Sinopsis del Libro

Those that Fly without Wings is a study concentrating on the practice of music and dance within a Chilean immigrant community in Oslo. It is a qualitative and interpretive account of how music activity plays a part in the negotiation and construction of immigrant identity, as well as how it gives a voice to tensions and contradictions within an immigrant group in an urban landscape. The study concerns a community with a considerable musical activity of various Latin American genres, taking place in public as well as private arenas. By engaging with both historical and present discourses in the community, complex processes of adaptation, redefinition, and reconstruction are addressed. Based on field research and interviews as well as song lyrics and poetry, the study examines various ways in which people with an active and committed relationship to music make their practices meaningful in this particular social setting.

Spanish/English Piano Method, Level 1

Piano students of Latin American heritage often do not relate to the folk tunes that most methods use because the majority of those melodies do not flow with the rhythm of the Spanish language. This method is based on melodies original to the Mexican culture. These children's songs flow more naturally with the language, and in accord with the Kodály method of music education, give a better foundation for teaching basic musical elements in a Spanish language culture. Coupled with constant work on sight-reading, this new method is a valuable tool for native Spanish speakers in learning to play ...

Cómo enseñar a cantar a niños y adolescentes

En este libro, Isabel Villagar, desde una perspectiva divulgativa y científica, afronta la cuestión de cómo se ha de enseñar a cantar a los niños y adolescentes teniendo en cuenta los condicionamientos físicos, mentales y emocionales de cada fase del desarrollo infantil y juvenil. Porque cantar, y cantar bien, es una actividad neuromuscular susceptible de ser aprendida y mejorada gracias a la práctica sostenida y al entrenamiento guiado, y no una habilidad innata que sólo unos pocos poseen o que los niños aprenden sin necesidad de ayuda por parte de los docentes. Cómo se produce la...
