A través de una cuidada investigación histórica, el libro narra su recorrido desde sus inicios musicales en Cataluña hasta su decisivo papel en la historia de México, donde compuso la música del himno nacional mexicano.La obra ofrece una mirada intima a su trayectoria artistica y personal, marcada por la migracion, el compromiso cultural y los intercambios entre Europa y America en el siglo XIX. Jaime Nuno es una figura clave para entender los lazos culturales entre Cataluña y Mexico en el siglo XIX.Mas que una biografia, este libro es un puente entre dos continentes y dos mundos musicales, que reivindica la figura de Nuno como un simbolo del talento catalan proyectado al mundo.Durante mas de siglo y medio, el nombre de Jaime Nuno ha permanecido ligado exclusivamente al Himno Nacional Mexicano, del que fue autor de la musica. Sin embargo, detras de esa composicion emblematica se esconde una figura fascinante y hasta ahora poco estudiada: la de un musico catalan que recorrio medio mundo y dejo un legado de mas de 600 obras. Esta biografia exhaustiva rescata del olvido a Jaime Nuno Roca, nacido en Sant Joan de les Abadesses y viajero incansable por España, Italia, Cuba, Mexico y Estados Unidos. Resultado de mas de una decada de investigacion en archivos, bibliotecas y fondos familiares, este libro arroja nueva luz sobre la vida y la obra de un compositor cosmopolita, injustamente relegado a una nota al pie de la historia. Este libro es un homenaje a su memoria y un paso decisivo hacia el redescubrimiento de su obra.

Born the son of Scotland's last telescopemaker, Stuart Braithwaite was perhaps always destined for a life of psychedelic adventuring on the furthest frontiers of noise in MOGWAI, one of the best loved and most groundbreaking postrock bands of the past three decades.Modestly delinquent at school, Stuart developed an early appetite for 'alternative' music in what might arguably be described as its halcyon days, the late '80s. Discovering bands like Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, and Jesus and Mary Chain, and attending seminal gigs (often incongruously incognito as a young girl with long hair to compensate for his babyface features) by The Cure and Nirvana, Stuart compensated for his indifference to school work with a dedication to rock and roll . . . and of course the fledgling hedonism that comes with it.Spaceships Over Glasgow is a love song to live rock and roll; to the passionate abandon we've all felt in the crowd (and some of us, if lucky enough, from the stage) at a truly incendiary gig. It is also the story of a life lived on the edge; of the hightimes and hazardous pitstops of international touring with a band of misfits and miscreants.
