Description
Summary:Excerpt: Progressing from the conventional positivistic approach in music studies in the Philippines, Navarro provides a refreshing interpretation and analysis of musical data collected from the period 1898–1935. Informed by sociological and political theories, particularly those of Foucault and Bourdieu, his study subjects the rich primary materials to critical inquiry and relates these to the shaping of Philippine society. Only a few music writers in the Philippines have ventured as far.
