Music in America is one of several case-study volumes that can be used along with Thinking Musically, the core book in the Global Music Series. Thinking Musically incorporates music from many diverse cultures and establishes the framework for exploring the practice of music around the world. It sets the stage for an array of case-study volumes, each of which focuses on a single area of the world. Each case study uses the contemporary musical situation as a point of departure, covering historical information and traditions as they relate to the present. America''s music is a perennial work in progress. Music in America looks at both the roots of American musical identity and its many manifestations, seeking to answer the complex question: ''What does American music sound like?'' Focusing on three themes--identity, diversity, and unity--it explores where America''s music comes from, who makes it, and for what purpose. Rather than chronologically tracing America''s musical history, author Adelaida Reyes considers how musical culture is shaped by space and time, by geography and history, by social, economic, and political factors, and by people who use music to express themselves within a community. Introducing the diversity that dominates the contemporary American musical landscape, Reyes draws on a dazzling range of musical styles--from ethnic and popular music idioms to contemporary art music--to highlight the ways in which sounds from various cultural origins come to share a national identity. Packaged with a 65-minute CD containing examples of the music discussed in the book, Music in America features guided listening and hands-on activities that allow readers to become active participants in the music.

Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) was one of the last great artists in the ukiyo-e tradition. Literally meaning "pictures of the floating world", ukiyo-e refers to the famous Japanese woodblock print genre that originated in the 17th century and is practically synonymous with the Western world's visual characterization of Japan. Though Hiroshige captured a variety of subjects, his greatest talent was in creating landscapes of his native Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and his most famous work was a series known as "100 Famous Views of Edo" (1856-1858). This book provides an introduction to his work and an overview of his career.

Monografie met een introductie op het werk van Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) en een overzicht van de carriere van deze laatste grote kunstenaar van de Japanse oekiyo-e houtsnede. Deze drukkunst was bekend vanaf de zeventiende eeuw, maar in de jaren dertig van de negentiende eeuw werd - mede door Hiroshige - het landschap het thema. Dit resulteerde in prentseries over stadsgezichten, reisimpressies en afbeeldingen van de jaargetijden. Er is momenteel veel aandacht voor Japanse prentkunst, mede door de invloed die deze op Van Gogh had. Eerder is over delen van Hiroshige's werk al in het Engels gepubliceerd: de serie van Hiroshige's journey in the 60-odd provinces door Marije Jansen (2004)* en de heruitgave van de catalogus van Japanse prentkunst uit 1991 (Van Gogh Museum), waarin de invloed van Hiroshige op Van Gogh aan bod komt. In 2008 verscheen bij Taschen een uitgave over de prentserie '100 beroemde voorstellingen van Edo'. De hier besproken uitgave is in het Nederlands en geeft uitleg over de techniek van de houtdruk en leven en werk van Hiroshige. Prachtige introductie met veel kleurenillustraties. - Wim Visscher

El tercer título de la serie Conversaciones/Conversations, publicada por la Fundación Cisneros/Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, registra las conversaciones entre la artista conceptual brasileña, Jac Leirner, y la historiadora del arte, Adele Nelson. Leirner (nacida en 1961) emergio a principios de los años 90 a la vanguardia de una nueva generacion de artistas transnacionales que tomaron el arte de los años 60 y 70 como punto de partida para sus propias creaciones.Las obras meticulosamente construidas con objetos de uso diario, como cajetillas de cigarros, bolsas plasticas, cubiertos y dinero, crean, segun palabras de Leirner, un espacio para objetos que no lo tienen. En este primer estudio detallado de su proceso creativo, Nelson entrevista a la artista sobre su produccion a lo largo de mas de dos decadas de carrera.
