Summary:'Music and Cosmopolitanism' is a musical portrait of a city - Rio de Janeiro. Cristina Magaldi takes readers on an auditory tour through the city's early post-Imperial years, a period of crucial transition, as she surveys the city's variegated 'soundscape.' With visits to opera theaters and dance halls, and from symphony concerts to the cabaret, music halls, and the street, Magaldi moves through a gamut of musical expressions in Rio de Janeiro during these critical years of change. Her investigations demonstrate that the city's musical practices were articulated within a cosmopolitan context shared by residents in cities in the Americas and Europe, as she examines the musical and cultural interactions that resulted from early processes of urbanization, globalization, and the circulation of technology and information into and out of the Brazilian capital
