Preparing for the future: A description of client music preferences and musical preparedness of music therapists by Nathan A. Mensah, MT-BC A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement For the Master of Arts Degree Master of Arts in Music Therapy Program in the Departments of Graduate Studies and Music and Theatre Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana May, 2019 Abstract Music therapists often use client-preferred music in order to build rapport with clients, decrease their anxiety, increase relaxation, and increase overall efficacy of music interventions. The American Music Therapy Association states music therapists are required to play a wide variety of genres for use in sessions. Client’s musical tastes have grown diverse due to music streaming, and some music therapists may not have the musical skills necessary to recreate these styles in sessions. Currently, there is no data to show which genres and music styles are most commonly requested by their clients, or data to show which genres music therapists feel musically prepared or unprepared to use in sessions. A survey was used to collect data from board-certified music therapists to ask about which genres their clients most commonly request, as well as which genres they feel musically prepared using in sessions. The survey’s findings were that client’s most frequently requested Children’s, Classic Country, Classic Rock, Gospel, Hymn, Oldies, and Pop Music. Respondents reported to feeling most musically prepared to use genres that were most frequently requested by their clients. Music therapists reported not feeling musically prepared to use genres associated with World Music cultures or genres requiring use of electronic or synth- based instruments such as Bachata, EDM, Funk, Heavy Metal, Hip Hop/Rap, J-Pop, K-Pop, Latin Hip Hop/Latin Rap, Latin Pop, Merengue, Punk, Reggaeton, Salsa, Ska, Trap, and Video Game Music. -

American Music Review The H. Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music Conservatory of Music, Brooklyn College of the City University of New York Volume XLVI, Issue 2 Spring 2017 Dominican Migrants, Plural Identities, and Popular Music Angelina Tallaj, Guttman Community College, CUNY In an age of globalization marked by proliferating population movements, ever-faster communication, and cultural exchanges across nations, diasporic communities strive, often through music, to maintain connection to a homeland identity. In doing so they create new styles in adapting to their new host society, and offer musi- cal experiences that complicate the home/host binary positions. Dominican-American music, while influenced by American genres such as R&B, house, and hip hop, also features specifically Dominican Spanish lyrics and distinctive local Dominican rhythms to assure a continuity with Dominicans’ identity as Latinos or Hispanics. Dominican genres in New York, especially merengue and bachata, have become symbols of Latinidad (pan- Latino solidarity) for many migrants from Latin America precisely because they blend local and global genres of music. These genres mix rural Latin American cultural references with urban elements from New York City in ways that Spanish-speaking groups, who also experience newly fluid racial and ethnic identities away from their homeland, can identify with. Experiencing these Dominican-American genres is a way for migrants to rei- magine new and more porous borders of geography, race, and history. They combine past and present, rural and urban, and home and host countries in ways that create new and more plural models of identities. For many Dominicans, New York is just another Dominican city: we call upper Manhattan Quisqueya Heights, citing the Taíno Native Indian name for the island of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. -

José Alberto El Canario Estrena Nuevo Single Junto a Músicos Cubanos
José Alberto El Canario estrena nuevo single junto a músicos cubanos La Habana, 12 may (RHC) El reconocido cantante dominicano José Alberto "El Canario" estrenó la víspera el primer sencillo de su nuevo disco, en el que cuenta con acompañamiento musical cubano. “Rodando por el mundo” es el título de este tema que desde hoy está disponible en las plataformas digitales, así como su audiovisual promocional, un video lírico que ya está accesible en el canal oficial de YouTube del artista. De acuerdo con una nota de prensa, el single además da nombre a la más reciente producción discográfica de El Canario, que verá la luz próximamente, y que se trata de un fonograma dedicado en su totalidad al bolero, y que contiene nueve canciones y dos bonus tracks. Según ha asegurado el artista, "con este disco se cumple un sueño que tenía hace mucho tiempo. Yo siento una gran pasión por el bolero, que es de los géneros románticos el más universal. Al bolero debo muchos momentos de felicidad. Con esta producción, no estoy más que siendo recíproco con un género que me ha dado mucho y que me apasiona". Cuba fue esencial para la realización de este disco, pues en él José Alberto se hizo acompañar musicalmente por los grupos santiagueros Azabache y Los Guanches, con una participación muy destacada del legendario trovador santiaguero Alejandro Almenares y la colaboración del Magic Sax Quartet y músicos de la Orquesta Sinfónica de Oriente. Ha sido una experiencia bien bonita esta de acompañar a José Alberto El Canario en este disco de boleros. -
The Same Old Song?: Gender, Subjectivity, and Dominican Popular Music in Bachata Del Ángel Caído. Kathleen Costello Pedro Anto
Vol. I, Número 1 Invierno 2009 The Same Old Song?: Gender, Subjectivity, and Dominican Popular Music in Bachata del ángel caído. Kathleen Costello Pedro Antonio Valdez’s first novel, Bachata del ángel caído, earned the Dominican Republic’s National Novel prize in 1998 joining a long list of late twentieth-century Caribbean novels that have garnered critical attention for their appropriation of popular music to the literary realm. However, unlike other Dominican novels that incorporate elements of popular music primarily in reference to the Trujillato, Valdez’s novel engages popular music in relation to contemporary Dominican society and the popular musical form of bachata, highlighting many tensions and conflicts concerning gender and Dominican social identities. Yet, in many respects, Bachata del ángel caído constitutes a deeply problematic representation of the intersection of gender and Caribbean popular music, dealing in patterns of social behavior that tend to stifle the empowerment of women. Throughout Valdez’s novel, bachata music serves as a leitmotif in a plot that centers on life in the poor barrio of el Riito in the Dominican city of La Vega. Valdez’s lower-class characters frequently come into contact with each other at the local cabaret that doubles as a brothel with a jukebox that continually pumps out bachatas. In this essay I will draw a connection between bachata music, the emotionalism of the male characters, and the physical and psychological violence carried out against the female characters. In order to understand how the bachata functions in the novel in relation to gender and patriarchy, it is necessary to briefly outline the music’s complex relationship to contemporary Dominican society and trace its transition from a sub-cultural phenomenon to a more dominant cultural form. -
Sammy Garcia
Sammy Garcia In the world of the tropical music, Sammy is counted as one of the very best amongst such legendary performers as: Conjunto Clásico, Willie Colón, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Tito Nieves, Puerto Rican Power, Celia Cruz, Cheo Feliciano, Víctor Manuell, Olga Tañón, Elvis Crespo y Ricardo Arjona, just to name a few. His professional experiences during his musical career, afforded him the opportunity to play in such great venues and events such as: Concerts in the Madison Square Garden, Aruba Jazz Festival, Feria de Calí, Festival de la Calle Ocho, New Orleans Jazz Festival, Carnaval de Panamá, Día Nacional de la Salsa y Congreso Mundial de la Salsa, among others. They serve as a strong center for his artistic foundation, entertaining diverse audiences around the world. His artistic path has been split between being a musician and a director and this immersion into the craft has led him to be an innovator in the world of modern salsa music. This innovative vision is truly realized in his latest project “El Sabor De Puerto Rico”, where under the direction of Sammy, never loses the “swing” and “cadence” of the traditional salsa music.

Introduction
Introduction The Dominican Republic is home to the oldest of the Old World societies planted in the New World. The blending of all things indigenous, Euro- pean, and African, which is largely the history of the Americas, began with this Caribbean nation. The early history of Santo Domingo, as it was called, foreshadowed the way the Spanish Empire developed, and at the beginning of that process, no place in the hemisphere was more important. Despite its historical significance in the drama “Old World meets New World,” the Dominican Republic is familiar to most non- Dominicans only through a few elements of its history and culture. Many people are aware that it shares an island called Hispaniola with Haiti and that it was the place where Christopher Columbus chose to build a colony. Some people know that the country produces top major league baseball players and popular musicians. Other people have learned that it is a great option for an all- inclusive beach vacation. But not much else about the place is common knowledge outside its borders. People who visit the Dominican Republic but limit their experience to a week at a seaside resort gain little under- standing of the country beyond the tourist enclave. The relative obscurity of the Dominican Republic results partly from the fact that it has not received the academic attention in English that it de- serves. It is more difficult to delve into the Dominican past and present than it is for most other Latin American nations. This Reader seeks to change that. It provides an introduction to the history, politics, and culture of the Dominican Republic, from precolonial history to current trends, combin- ing primary sources such as essays, songs, poems, legal documents, and oral testimonies translated from Spanish, with excerpts from academic scholar- ship, to present the dramatic story of Dominican life since the country’s founding.
