At long last composer Julio Estrada tells me that my book on Conlon Nancarrow is now available in Spanish, from the University of Mexico Press. I’m awaiting a copy in the mail. Here (in the right column) is the only advertisement I can find for it. Espero que seas ayudado por esta publicación.

Que bien – felicidades!
This is terrific news. I’ve been wanting to get a hold of this book both for my personal study/enjoyment and to use in my analysis classes. I teach at the Conservatory of Chihuahua, so a Spanish version is better.
Thanks for the news.
any idea where I can get some of Estrada’s work?
the montaigne cd is long out of print…
any help would be appreciated.

KG replies: Nope. Anyone else?
You can find some of Estrada’s recorded works in these albums:
-”Xenakis/UPIC/Continuum” on the Mode label.
-”Donaueschinger Musiktage 2006, vol. 1″ on the Neos label.
-”Donaueschinger Musiktage 2002″ on the Col Legno label.
All of these recordings are commercially available in the U.S. We’re still waiting for the re-edition of his music for strings CD on Montaigne.
I hope this helps.
What’s the relation of this book/translation to Carlos Sandoval? (just asking)
KG replies: Carlos did the original translation, but it was afterward modified by others.
