Encuentro sobre músicas populares y tradicionales en la educación universitaria. Bogotá, mayo de 2018. Memorias
"In May 2018, the Meeting was held in Bogotá on popular and traditional music in university education, event with the participation of 20 speakers, who presented the results of their research and inquiries around the field. A A sample of these papers constitutes the set of texts collected in this publication. Undoubtedly, among the most disturbing subjects of a event of this nature highlights the one that concerns the definition of the terms. popular music expressions and traditional music are categories riddled with contradictions and counter-examples, which makes it necessary to use them with much caution. Behind that problem is the difficulty delimit with certainty what traditional and popular mean as adjectives of various nouns. acknowledging that the artistic context does not offer much information to the respect, since categories such as popular and traditional do not appear in architecture, cinema or plastic arts, the challenge is to approach the debate from the musical point of view."
