  • Film, Photojournalism, and the Public Sphere in Brazil and Argentina, 1955-1980
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: MODERNIZATION AND VISUAL ECONOMY: FILM, PHOTOJOURNALISM, AND THE PUBLIC SPHERE IN BRAZIL AND ARGENTINA, 1955-1980 Paula Halperin, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Directed By: Professor Barbara Weinstein Department of History University of Maryland, College Park My dissertation explores the relationship among visual culture, nationalism, and modernization in Argentina and Brazil in a period of extreme political instability, marked by an alternation of weak civilian governments and dictatorships. I argue that motion pictures and photojournalism were constitutive elements of a modern public sphere that did not conform to the classic formulation advanced by Jürgen Habermas. Rather than treating the public sphere as progressively degraded by the mass media and cultural industries, I trace how, in postwar Argentina and Brazil, the increased production and circulation of mass media images contributed to active public debate and civic participation. With the progressive internationalization of entertainment markets that began in the 1950s in the modern cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Buenos Aires there was a dramatic growth in the number of film spectators and production, movie theaters and critics, popular magazines and academic journals that focused on film. Through close analysis of images distributed widely in international media circuits I reconstruct and analyze Brazilian and Argentine postwar visual economies from a transnational perspective to understand the constitution of the public sphere and how modernization, Latin American identity, nationhood, and socio-cultural change and conflict were represented and debated in those media. Cinema and the visual after World War II became a worldwide locus of production and circulation of discourses about history, national identity, and social mores, and a space of contention and discussion of modernization.

Composer and pianist Ariel Ramírez spent much of his life studying and promoting the folk traditions of his homeland in Argentina. Once he composed and recorded Misa Criolla, following right on the heels of the second Vatican Council with a newly authorized translation of the mass into Spanish, the work quickly gave him an international presence.

  • Latin America: a Miracle of Faith” “Latinoamérica: Un Milagro De Fé”
    Border Cros ing presents: “Latin America: A Miracle of Faith” “Latinoamérica: Un Milagro de Fé” September 16, 2017 7:30 pre-concert talk, 8:00 concert Our Lady of Guadalupe Church: 401 Concord Street, Saint Paul Border CrosSing started with an unsatised audience member. As a Mexican-Egyptian who absolutely adores choral music, I just wasn’t nding much that spoke to my cultural identity in the concerts I attended. A few times, I felt that my culture was being disrespected – one egregious example occurred when I listened to a solemn religious motet from 17th century Mexico performed as an upbeat dance number with added marimba and djembe! Most of the time, the concert programs just didn’t say anything that contributed to a better understanding between cultures. Almost all of the time, access was severely limited… I would be the only Mexican – or Egyptian – in the audience. We founded Border CrosSing on the basis of these three concepts: respect, relevance, and access. Ultimately, our mission is to integrate historically-segregated repertoire, audiences, and musicians through the performance of choral music at the highest possible level. We envision a landscape where singers, programs, and audiences more closely reect the racial and cultural composition of the Twin Cities. Our rst season, Puentes, is a year-long series of concerts here at Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish. In this season, we will focus on music and stories related to Latin America. The goal is to combat stereotypes (both negative and positive) by telling stories that help create a fuller picture of Latinxs, their concerns, stories, and reality.

ISSN 1666-1060 (impresa) – ISSN 2618-3072 (en línea) 144 Revista Argentina de Musicología 2017 Heroínas, mártires y cautivas. Renovación folklórica y usos políticos del pasado en el LP Mujeres Argentinas (1969) En 1969 el músico santafesino Ariel Ramírez junto al historiador Félix Luna lanzaron un trabajo discográfico que se denominó Mujeres Argentinas. Se trataba de una serie de canciones cuyo eje estaba centrado en rescatar el papel de las mujeres en diferentes momentos de la historia argentina. La grabación corrió por cuenta del propio Ramírez con la participación excluyente de Mercedes Sosa como vocalista. La obra alcanzó enorme popularidad y muchas de sus canciones aún poseen gran circulación. En este artículo se formula un análisis de la obra trabajando en forma intertextual los aspectos tanto musicales como performativos, literarios, estilísticos y discursivos, así como el contexto de producción. Palabras clave: Música, Historia, Raíz folklórica, Canción, Política Heroines, martyrs and captives. Renewed native music and political uses of the past in the LP Mujeres Argentinas (1969) In this paper the work of the Argentinian musician and composer Eduardo Lagos is examined. The analysis of some of his most emblematic music and the study of the context where he produced his music, allow us to reveal the ground-breaking character of his style, the fusion between folk music and jazz, and the peculiarity of his musical practice where a distinctive playful feature is outlined.

  • Ariel Ramírez
    Ariel Ramírez Biografia Producciones Lastra S.L En Ariel Ramírez se resumen las cualidades de un artista que, fiel a las raíces y valores culturales de su pueblo, conformó una trayectoria creativa que le permitió trascender el ámbito de su país de origen -nació en Santa Fe, ciudad del Litoral de la Argentina, el 4 de setiembre de 1921-, para convertirse en un pianista y compositor de notable reconocimiento universal. Cuarto entre los seis hermanos nacidos del entre doña Rosa Blanca Servetti y don Zenón Ramírez (maestro, periodista y escritor), Ariel estudió piano en su ciudad natal y, luego de obtener su título de maestro de escuela, ya convencido de que su futuro estaría destinado a expresar musicalmente las vivencias del hombre del interior de su país, buscó familiarizarse con las manifestaciones de instrumentistas y cantores populares. Fue crucial en su elección la visita a la Escuela Normal de Santa Fe de un inspector de Música, dueño de un elegante estilo pianístico, llamado Arturo Schianca, incansable difusor del repertorio sureño. Radicado en Córdoba, al amparo de sus amigos estudiantes tucumanos Chonchón y Raúl Mothe, conoció a Atahualpa Yupanqui quien lo impulsó a conocer el noroeste; así a partir de 1941 viajó por las provincias de Tucumán, Salta y Jujuy. Vivió varios meses en Humahuaca, donde recibió una fecunda orientación del Dr. Justiniano Torres Aparicio, músico y conocedor de la cultura nacional. También estuvo radicado un tiempo en la región cuyana, principalmente en Mendoza. Hacia 1943, iniciada ya su carrera de intérprete de un variado repertorio pianístico basado en la música folklórica sudamericana, se presenta como solista de piano en Buenos Aires en conciertos y filmaciones, como así también integrando ciclos de emisiones radiales de arte nacional, especialmente a través de Radio El Mundo.
