Nicolas Slonimsky (1894-1995) y sus escritos sobre música en Latinoamérica: Reivindicación de un 'Fishing Trip'

Abstract

[ES] El libro de Nicolas Slonimsky Music of Latin America (1945) fue una obra pionera en la que por primera vez se presentó un compendio de la actividad musical en todos los países de Latinoamérica; aunque fue criticada originalmente, esta obra merece ser revisitada y servir de inspiración a todos aquellos interesados en las relaciones musicales entre ambos lados del Atlántico. Tras presentar la biografía del polifacético Slonimsky (traducida de su propio artículo en el Baker´s Biograhical Dictionary of Musicians), el artículo repasa su periplo por Latinoamérica (plagado de anécdotas con los compositores que conoció) recogiendo partituras orquestales originales para la Fleisher Collection de la Free Library de Philadelphia, así como su actividad como director y crítico musical clarividente. El Apéndice presenta los músicos españoles de la primera mitad del siglo XX en Latinoamérica cuya actividad fue comentada por Slonimsky, así como los músicos latinoamericanos que según Slonimsky estuvieron en España; de esa forma queda también reflejada la importante relación musical entre ambos lados del Atlántico durante la primera mitad del siglo XX tal y como la presentó Slonimsky, de forma indirecta, al comentar la música de Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, República Dominicana, México, Panamá y Perú. Algunos datos presentados por Slonimsky no han quedado recogidos en el Diccionario de la música española e hispanoamericana.

[EN] Nicolas Slonimsky´s book Music of Latin America (1945) was a pioneering work in which for the first time the music of all countries from Latin America was discussed; although originally the book was not very well received, it deserves to be revisited by all those interested in the music relationships between Spain and Latin America. After presenting the biography of the multifaceted Slonimsky (translated from his own article in Baker´s Biographical Dictionary of Musicians), this article reviews Slonimsky´s tryp to Latin America (full of anecdotes with the composers he met) collecting orchestral scores for the Fleisher Collection of the Free Library in Philadelphia, as well as his activity as conductor and lucid critic of contemporary Latin American music. The Appendix presents early 20th-century Spanish musicians who travelled to Latin America mentioned by Slonimsky, as well as Latin American composers who visited Spain; in that way the music relationships between Spain and Latin America during the first half of the 20th century as seen by Slonimsky are reflected, albeit indirectly, through his writings about the music of Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, República Dominicana, México, Panamá and Perú. Some facts presented by Slonimsky are not in the Diccionario de la música española e hispanoamericana.
