Living Politics, Making Music
La Nueva Canción Latinoamericana (1984)
In 1998 the Chilean musical group Inti-Illimani celebrated their thirtieth anniversary. During these 30 years they have achieved the greatest international reputation of any of Chile’s nueva canción groups, enjoying periods of enormous popularity at home and abroad, especially in Italy. In 2002, as I write this piece, they are a year short of celebrating 35 years. Yet between 1998 and 2002 two key members left the group: musical director Horacio …

Bill Drummond's 'The 17' project at IASPM Glasgow
Those of us who found we were sitting on or next to an empty cinema type numbered seat with black gaffer tape covering its number gathered at the front of the room and then, after a ten-minute break, entered into a windowless studio where two rows of seats were arranged in a semi-circle. In front of the seats were three high microphones, a keyboard, and a table with an Apple Mac laptop on it (the iconic corporate apple sign was the only thing tha…

Introduction to 'Dance' special issue
Are ye dancin'?' 'Are ye askin'?' 'Yes I'm askin" 'Then I'm dancin'!' This was the exchange between couples in Glasgow early in the twentieth century at the height of the ballroom dancing boom that made the city one of the dancing capitals of the world. It lingers on in Scottish dancing parlance. In Havana, people were dancing danzón; in Buenos Aires, tango; and in Río de Janeiro, samba. It was a time of big orchestras when women wore evening dre…
Dancing back to front
In this Middle Eight using ethnographic observation and interviews made in Cuba in May-July 2005 and March-April 2006 I problematise the new Latina/o dance music 'reggaetón' which in the USA is being heralded as ''an expression of pan-Latino identity ... the latest Latin musical style to sweep the world ... the one with the most promise of finding a permanent, prominent place not just in US but in global popular culture ..." (Marshall, 2006). Not…

Analysing performance
In September 1974 a group of musicians came together in Paris to perform at meetings to mark the first anniversary of the 1973 Chileancoup d'état. The group took the name ¡Karaxú! which is variously translated in performance as 'to go forward' or as 'a war cry'. In fact ¡Karaxú! is a Quechuasied version of the spanishcarajowhich colloquially can be loosely translated as 'bugger off' but in fact meansgrito de couraje y de rebeldía(a cry of courage…
