This book includes biographical information on Carlos Prieto, his
contributions to music, as well as a detailed catalog of 72 pieces
commissioned and/or dedicated to him. A graduate of MIT and a
former director of Fundidora, the biggest steel company in Mexico,
Carlos Prieto decided at the age of 38 to abandon his career as a
business man and become a full time professional cellist. Since
then he has premiered over 90 pieces, most of them commissioned
and/or dedicated to him by Latin-American composers. These
commissions and dedications represent about 50 percent of the music
written for the cello by Latin-American composers. This is the
first time a study has been conducted on this body of music.
