This post are going to be divided in several parts....
First of all, I want to start to tell you a short history about Salsa.
Salsa is musical genre that is made of other Rythms like Chacha, Boogaloo, Pachanga, Son, Danzon, Mambo, Jazz and other afro-antillean music styles. It's completly developed by latinamericans who were located in NYC in 1970. Since then, this new music has gone beyond borders on all over the world.
Several folks say that Salsa was only made in Cuba. According to what I've read throug the years, this genre isn't only from that country. Nevertheless I think we must give credit to them because they created rythms that are still used in Salsa band's songs. As I said before, the term "Salsa" was created in New York but it was only to say that there was a mix of several kinds of music.
If you look up on the Internet this term, Surely you're going to find many definitions about it. There are going to be diferent opinions about who and where was created it. Personally, I think Salsa is like a big tree that has a lot of roots and branches because it came from a barrage of styles and now every country has adapted it in its own way....
