‘Music Scenes and Migrations’ brings together new work from Brazilian and European scholars around the themes of musical place and transnationalism across the Atlantic triangle connecting Brazil, Africa and Europe.

The book has a pioneering role insofar since it is the only publication ...
Neste livro, Antônio Albino Canelas Rubim, professor da Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA), reúne suas reflexões sobre os desafios que a cultura enfrentou e ainda enfrenta para continuar a se desenvolver e disseminar pelo grande território que é o Brasil.
