With heroines like Josephine Baker, Colette, Isadora Duncan, and the cancaneuses of the Moulin Rouge, this is far from a conventional history.Rich with both fascinating anecdotes (such as the New Jersey girl picked up by the police for dancing the very sexy turkey trot one day during the Roaring Twenties), and astonishing facts (the first geishas were men), "Something in the Way She Moves" shows us the world of dance and sex through women''s eyes. Best-selling author Wendy Buonaventura brings us from Buenos Aires, Argentina, where immigrants created the delicious tango, to Paris and the bawdy, leggy cancan dancers of the Moulin Rouge, to New York, where struggling African-Americans cakewalked, Charlestoned, and shimmied into the public eye, creating "jazz dance" (originally--and tellingly--called "jass" dance). This is a book for lovers of dance and lovers of history alike, and an engrossing introduction to a slightly seamy side of a cultural legacy.

Mara Lea Brown en su infancia vino a vivir a un pueblo costero de Andalucía cuando el duende, ese testarudo espíritu flamenco, salía airoso de la batalla contra el folklorismo franquista y comenzaba otra contra el guirigay flamenquista que se preparaba para la ola de turistas sedientos por conocer nuestras raices. No se sabe cuando ni como se vio asaltada por el duende que la llevo a contorsionarse por los tablaos, pero desde entonces no ha podido desasirse de el. Tanto es asi que ahora el duende, en su actual lucha por sobrevivir los nuevos cambios que arrasan su tierra, se ha servido de ella como medium para desvelar un fragmento de su propia historia, que es la historia del flamenco. Solea narra la vida cotidiana de un pueblo en el que el duende se desenvolvia como dueño y señor de las almas que lo llamaban para celebrar memorables juergas espontaneas. Pero el tiempo pasa, y muchos de los que antes se dejaban llevar por el frenesi, ahora se pasan el dia planeando alguna coreografia hasta el mas minimo movimiento del dedo meñique de la mano izquierda. Otros, simplemente no bailan, no cantan, no tocan, agobiados por sus responsabilidades diarias, sus horarios y el dinero. El duende no tiene paciencia para esas cosas. Empieza a temer que su Toñi, una de las ultimas que lo ha sabido llamar, no volvera a bailar, y si quiere sobrevivir, tendra que encontrar a alguien que lo vuelva a dejar expresarse.

Hoy en día los profesores de música llegan al aula bien preparados en cuanto a los contenidos y habilidades de su disciplina. Sin embargo, eso no garantiza que respondan a las necesidades de sus estudiantes ni que logren los resultados que esperan. Lo que los estudiantes traen al aula --en terminos de sus propias experiencias, y tambien las de sus padres, familia, y el ambiente en el que crecieron-- son asuntos sociologicos que influyen sobre toda la educacion escolar, incluida la musica.El libro examina la historia y el desarrollo de los factores sociales que afectan los valores, gustos y actitudes de los estudiantes, y que los profesores de musica deben afrontar como parte integral de su trabajo.
