Panpipes and Ponchos

"For several decades now, the Andean conjunto has been the preeminent format for 'Andean folk music' groups in the major cities of the world.

Modernity and Colombian Identity in the Music of Carlos Vives y La Provincia

By the late 1980s and early 1990s, a great number of TV shows and music acts blossomed in Colombia, all of which resorted to regional identity as the narrative core for a renewed idea of national identity.

Brass Bands of the British Isles 1800-2018 - a historical directory

Of the many brass bands that have flourished in Britain and Ireland over the last 200 years very few have documented records covering their history.

Over 19,600 bands are recorded here, with some 10,600 additional cross references for alternative or previous names. This volume supersedes the earlier “British Brass Bands – a Historical Directory” (2016) and includes some 1,400 bands from the island of Ireland. A separate work is in preparation covering brass bands beyond the British Isles. A separate appendix lists the brass bands in each county
