Agustin Lara by Andrew Grant Wood
Few Mexican musicians in the twentieth century achieved as much notoriety or had such an international impact as the popular singer and songwriter Agustin Lara (1897-1970). With close musicological focus and in-depth cultural analysis riding alongside the biographical narrative, Agustin Lara: A Cultural Biography is a welcome read to aficionados and performers of Latin American musics.
"The first virtue of the present volume, then, is that it fills an obvious voidThe second virtue is that it is beautifully done: well assembled and very well researched. Wood argues convincingly, even to non-specialist readers, that Lara was more than an entertainer. Highly recommended." --Choice
