This essay analyzes the role that musical representations have played in the development and expression of regionalist sentiment in Magallanes, Chile, and asserts that residents of Magallanes participated in Cold War-era politics through a distinctively local lens.

Second Set
Between first and second sets, Cornell student Rick Koh found himself at the front of the crowd at Barton Hall. Although it was an excellent vantage from which to watch the musicians, Koh found it harrowing being pressed between the mass of bodies behind him and the metal barrier in front of him.
