Abel Rozas Aragón (2022) Cultural Miscellany of Cusco. Cusco, Author's Edition

Abstract

Through its various collected texts, Miscelánea Cultural del Cusco offers an overview of the life of Cusco native Abel Rozas Aragón, highlighting the generous introductory sketch written for the occasion that links the other texts together, giving them “an autobiographical and existential character, like a vibrant chronicle” (p. 91). Rozas’ intellectual and artistic activity happily meet in its pages, leaving testimony not only of the author’s research and reflection, but also of his rich musical and creative journey. And above all, the book brings together protagonists, institutions and little-known facts from the musical history of one of the most important cities in America, Cusco.
