The music of Cuba, including the instruments and the dances, is influenced mostly by African, European (especially Spanish) and to a lesser extent Chinese music. Most forms of the present day are fusions and mixtures of these sources, mainly the first two. For instance, the son montuno merges the Spanish guitar, melody, harmony, and lyrical traditions with Afro-Cuban percussion and rhythms. Almost nothing remains of the original Indian traditions.[1]
Since the 19th century Cuban music has been hugely popular and influential throughout the world. It has been perhaps the most popular form of world music since the introduction of recording technology. Cuban music has been immensely influential in other countries. It contributed not only to the development of jazz and salsa, but also to the Argentine tango, Ghanaian high-life, West African Afrobeat, Dominican Bachata and Merengue, Colombian Cumbia, Spanish Nuevo flamenco, Arabo-Cuban music developed by Michel Elefteriades in the 90's, and to various forms of Pop music around the world.
