Marysol Quevedo is Associate Professor of Musicology at the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami. She is the author of Cuban Music Counterpoints: Vanguardia Musical in Global Networks (Oxford University Press, 2023), which traces the intellectual and artistic networks Cuban composers forged between 1940 and 1991, examining how they navigated aesthetic innovation and political agendas across local and international contexts. Her research centers on Cuban art music before and after the 1959 Revolution, with particular attention to cultural diplomacy and Cold War-era transnational networks.
An interdisciplinary scholar with a minor in ethnomusicology, Quevedo integrates historical musicology and ethnographic fieldwork in her approach. She holds a PhD in Musicology from Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music. A frequent presenter at international conferences, she serves as Director-at-Large on the Board of the American Musicological Society and on the editorial board of American Music.
