  • Página 1 De 8 – Semanario “El Veraz”- Elveraz.Com
    Damaso Pérez Prado: Corona para el Rey del Mambo Fue en México, comenzando los 50 y mientras compartía escenario con la orquesta de Dámaso Pérez Prado, cuando un joven cantante llamado Bartolomé Maximiliano Moré estrenó Locas por el mambo, una pieza suya en la que decía: ¿Quién inventó el mambo que me sofoca?/ ¿Quién inventó el mambo,/ que a las mujeres las vuelve locas?/ ¿Quién inventó esa cosa loca?/ /Un chaparrito con cara de foca/ Por supuesto, el «chaparrito con cara de foca» no era otro que el mismo Dámaso Pérez Prado, que ya imponía su nuevo ritmo en México, La Habana y Nueva York. Lejos estaba Benny de imaginar que lo que para él y otros muchos era un hecho indiscutible, se convertiría en una de las más agudas y al parecer interminables polémicas en la historia de la música popular cubana: la paternidad del mambo. Hoy, entre músicos que alegan su mejor derecho y musicólogos empeñados en hurgar en la cuestión, la autoría del mambo acoge al menos a cuatro nombres en pugna: el del gran sonero Arsenio Rodríguez; el del compositor y pianista Orestes Página 1 de 8 – Semanario “El Veraz”- elveraz.com López; el de su hermano Israel Cachao López, bajista y también compositor; y el del propio Dámaso Pérez Prado. El vocablo mambo entró definitivamente en los predios de la música popular cubana en 1935, cuando Orestes López compuso un danzón titulado precisamente así y lo llevó a la orquesta de Antonio Arcaño, que comenzó a tocarlo al año siguiente. No obstante, la palabra figuraba desde mucho antes en el léxico musicológico y por eso los hermanos López la utilizaron para definir un nuevo estilo mambear que llegó a ser conocido como el «danzón de ritmo nuevo», una modalidad danzonera que varió de modo fundamental la estructura del danzón clásico al agregársele una coda donde, para deleite de los bailadores, se daba mayor libertad a los músicos y se hacían largas improvisaciones sincopadas.

  • Enrique Jorrín and Cha-Cha-Chá: Creation, Historical Importance and Influences on American Music Education
    ENRIQUE JORRÍN AND CHA-CHA-CHÁ: CREATION, HISTORICAL IMPORTANCE AND INFLUENCES ON AMERICAN MUSIC EDUCATION A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF MUSIC by Jeffrey M. Torchon December 2015 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Deborah Confredo, Advisory Chair, Music Education Dr. Nathan Buonviri, Music Education Dr. Rollo Dilworth, Music Education © Copyright 2015 by Jeffrey M. Torchon All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT One of the most distinctive musical genres that originated in Cuba over the last century has been Cha-Cha-Chá, which was created by Enrique Jorrín in the 1950s. The popularity of this music has grown considerably since its genesis, evidenced by the vast array of repertoire associated with the style of music, the multitude of bands performing it and its prevalence in popular culture. The music has traveled the world via aural transmission; advances in technology have helped to disseminate Cha-Cha-Chá and have contributed to its prevalence. Very little research—particularly research written in the English language—exists on this genre and its creator. Due to its musical significance and social impact, it is important to understand Cha-Cha-Chá’s place in modern Cuba and how it has been preserved over time. The purpose of this study is to discuss Enrique Jorrín’s influence on the creation and performance of Cha-Cha-Chá, and to discuss the importance of Cha-Cha-Chá in American music education. iii DEDICATION I dedicate this work to my grandfather, Ray Torchon. In his vivacious eighty- seven years of life, he and I were the best of friends.

  • Introducing Leonardo Acosta, Music and Literary Critic
    Vol. 5, No. 3, Spring 2008, 95-121 www.ncsu.edu/project/acontracorriente Introducing Leonardo Acosta, Music and Literary Critic Raúl A. Fernández University of California—Irvine Daniel Whitesell Irvine Valley College The recent awards bestowed on Leonardo Acosta, in particular Cuba’s Premio Nacional de Literatura (2006), come as no surprise to the authors of this article who have long been aware of the breadth and depth of Acosta’s essays on music and literature. To many, however, Acosta’s writing career has remained largely invisible. In part this is because Acosta’s major essays began to appear in the early 1980s when he was nearly fifty years old, a time by which most professional writers have established their careers; in part, because he had labored rather independently of any official Cuban institutions. As Acosta noted in his acceptance speech for the Premio Nacional de Literatura he had not been identified as “associated with any literary ‘group,’ or ‘revista,’ or ‘generation,’ or ‘cohort’. Neither had [he] participated in any aesthetic or ideological polemic affecting arts and letters…” His ‘invisibility” may also be in part because his writing has consisted primarily of ensayos, a genre Fernández 96 that attracts less attention from literary critics than poetry or prose narrative. Another contributing factor has been the diversity of the intellectual field Acosta defined for himself—he began as a professional musician, became a journalist, poet and short story writer for a decade, and then became a writer on music and literature. This career trajectory makes it difficult for any other single author to evaluate Acosta’s work as a whole.

Entre músicos y musicólogos, 1920-1950 GABRIELA PULIDO LLANO En el presente artículo analizo, con las herramientas de la historia cultural, las ideas de musicólogos cubanos y mexicanos que examinaron las claves de la africanía en las prácticas y adaptaciones musicales tanto del danzón como del mambo. En sus textos se aprecia cómo dichos géneros se adaptaron a las circunstancias locales de oferta y demanda en la esfera del espectáculo urbano mexicano. Hurgamos en la historia del pensamiento musical para en- tender fenómenos sociales más complejos, relativos a los conceptos centra- les de este trabajo: africanía, circulación transnacional y adaptación cultural. Las historias de vida de Consejo Valiente Roberts “Acerina” y de Dámaso Pérez Prado brindan importantes elementos para asociar el fenómeno de circulación cultural a la migración. PALABRAS CLAVE: danzón, mambo, adaptaciones musicales, influencia social, proyección, circulación Afro Cuban Musical Keys in Mexico.
