Cr�ticas:

"Venceremos highlights the power of culture - whether music or other artistic modalities - to foment change, raise consciousness and heighten excitement about the possibility of a better world." --Eleanor J. Bader, truth-out.org

"A well-written history and analysis that never forgets what the subject matter is: music for the ages." --Gustavo Arellano, editor, OC Weekly, and syndicated columnist, �Ask a Mexican!

"Gabriel San Rom�n provides a thoughtful and comprehensive overview of the New Chilean Song Movement. Chile's music of the 1960s and early 1970s was not only a milestone in Latin American popular culture, its importance transcended the strictly artistic to assume social and political significance. San Rom�n insightfully interweaves the music's artistic development with Chile's tumultuous history of those years." --James Brennan, professor and chair of history, University of California-Riverside

Rese�a del editor:

When the socialist politician Salvador Allende dramatically won Chile&;s presidential election in 1970, a powerful cultural movement accompanied him to power as folk singers emerged at the forefront proving that music could help forge the birth of a new society. &;Venceremos&; charts the development of such a cultural phenomenon from the years before Allende&;s victorious campaign to the brutal U.S.-backed military coup on September 11, 1973, which ousted his presidency and imposed the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet. The bloody repression that followed would claim the life of V�ctor Jara, a key singer-songwriter, but could never put to rest the lasting power of his songs nor the movement he personified.
