"Compilation of Andrade's writings on musical esthetics. Part of a series of publications edited by Flávia Camargo Toni aimed at making Andrade's collection available for study (for other works edited by Toni, see HLAS 52:5119 and HLAS 54:5167). This book undoubtedly adds to our understanding of Andrade's ideas, revealing his reliance on works by German musicologists such as Hugo Riemann and E. Hanslick"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
