The International Journal of Bahamian Studies, Vol. I: 'The Bahamas, Guadeloupe, Haiti, Jamaica, and US Virgin Islands'

[Cleophas R.E. Adderley]

Dr. Christine Gangelhoff is Assistant Professor of Music, The College of The Bahamas, Nassau, Bahamas. She writes with an update on a publication on Caribbean Art Music, The International Journal of Bahamian Studies:


Dear Bill, 
I hope this email finds you well. Thank you once again for promoting the first volume of our bibliography on Caribbean art music on your site. For any readers who have not seen the publication, it is the first stage of a comprehensive annotated bibliography of Caribbean classical music material: books, articles, scores, recordings, websites, and sound and video files.  Vol. 1 covers five countries: The Bahamas, Guadeloupe, Haiti, Jamaica, and the US Virgin Islands.  You can view the publication on this site:


We are currently gathering material for the Volume 2, which will cover Barbados, Trinidad, Grenada, BVI, Aruba, Curacao, Dominica, St. Kitts, Antigua and Barbuda, and any other countries for which information can be found.  The future Volume 3 will cover Cuba, the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. 

We are also preparing updates for Volume 1 and would welcome leads to material that has come out since its publication in Fall 2011 (or, indeed, to material that we missed and failed to include). 

Readers who have any information on composers from this region can contact us at cariclassical@hotmail.com or gangelhoff@gmail.com.

Best regards,
Christine
