Actually, my dissertation is on m.t. and various aspects of Dominican culture. The accordion is merely my way of getting into the research and better understanding the music. I've done about 50 interviews so far with tipcio musicians, producers, etc. I'm happy to answer your questions about it if you reply with an email address!<BR/>Best of luck,<BR/>SydneySydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11683587223638008198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16323684.post-1168596632974354912007-01-12T07:10:00.000-03:002007-01-12T07:10:00.000-03:00i just randomly came across your blog and found it...i just randomly came across your blog and found it very interesting. i, too, have recently been doing a lot of research about merengue tipico and it's role in dominican culture, though yours is obviously focused on the accordion.<BR/><BR/>i have, unfortunetly, not had the opportunity to be as thorough, but talking to my father, uncles, and especially grandfather have proved to be amazing. i have a cousin who is a tipico performer, whom i have yet to speak to about it as my research as changed over the years, but is very well informed about the culture of it all. not that you really need it, as your research has been quite extensive.<BR/><BR/>good luck on your trip, i actually may want to ask a few questions for my own research, if you wouldnt mind (sorry if this seems random) one day. <BR/><BR/>i'm jealous of your impending trip to santo domingo, i want to go home.<BR/><BR/>cuidate.Carohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04821989874468414674noreply@blogger.com
