Exploring Peru’s lively music industry and the studio producers, radio DJs, and program directors that drive it, this book is an account of the deliberate development of artistic taste. Focusing on popular huayno music and the ways it has been promoted to Peru’s emerging middle class, the author tells a complex story of identity making and the marketing forces entangled with it, providing insights into the dynamics among art, class, and ethnicity that reach far beyond the Andes. He focuses on the music of Ayacucho, Peru, examining how media workers and intellectuals there transformed the city’s huayno music into the country’s most popular style. By marketing contemporary huayno against its traditional counterpart, these agents, the author argues, have paradoxically reinforced ethnic hierarchies at the same time that they have challenged them. Navigating between a burgeoning Andean bourgeoisie and a music industry eager to sell them symbols of newfound sophistication, the book is an account of the real people behind cultural change.Less

This chapter discusses Andean intellectual life in twentieth-century Ayacucho, when local discussions about traditional huayno style set the terms in which future generations would interpret it. These discussions took place in events organized by Centro Cultural Ayacuchano, a society of enlightened aristocracy that was tied obliquely to Peru’s contemporaneous indigenista movement. The chapter also discusses the foundations of huamanguinismo, including the sounds, images, and ideas that separated true huamanguinos from those who were not.Less

The opening section of this chapter introduces the reader to the Andean conjunto tradition, especially its Bolivian variant, and lays out the book’s three major contributions. The second section discusses the folklorization process, and explains how it relates to the major case studies that the book covers. The final two sections of this chapter provide historical background on pre–20th-century La Paz. The first one discusses the Bolivian state’s antagonistic relationship with the indigenous population from the founding of the Republic of Bolivia (1825) to the late 19th century. The concluding section, after explaining how the central district of La Paz city was segregated along ethnic lines, provides an overview of the forms of musical expression that criollo (“white”), mestizo, and indigenous people practiced in urban La Paz in the 19th century.Less
