This dance, now known as “on 2” mambo, or salsa, for its relationship to the clave, is the first uniquely North American form of vernacular Latino dance on the East Coast. This paper traces the New York mambo’s develop- ment from its beginnings at the Palladium Ballroom through the salsa and hustle years and up to the present time. The current period is characterized by increasing growth, commercialization, codification, and a blending with other modern, urban dance genres such as hip-hop.

  • Creolizing Contradance in the Caribbean
    Peter Manuel 1 / Introduction Contradance and Quadrille Culture in the Caribbean region as linguistically, ethnically, and culturally diverse as the Carib- bean has never lent itself to being epitomized by a single music or dance A genre, be it rumba or reggae. Nevertheless, in the nineteenth century a set of contradance and quadrille variants flourished so extensively throughout the Caribbean Basin that they enjoyed a kind of predominance, as a common cultural medium through which melodies, rhythms, dance figures, and per- formers all circulated, both between islands and between social groups within a given island. Hence, if the latter twentieth century in the region came to be the age of Afro-Caribbean popular music and dance, the nineteenth century can in many respects be characterized as the era of the contradance and qua- drille. Further, the quadrille retains much vigor in the Caribbean, and many aspects of modern Latin popular dance and music can be traced ultimately to the Cuban contradanza and Puerto Rican danza. Caribbean scholars, recognizing the importance of the contradance and quadrille complex, have produced several erudite studies of some of these genres, especially as flourishing in the Spanish Caribbean. However, these have tended to be narrowly focused in scope, and, even taken collectively, they fail to provide the panregional perspective that is so clearly needed even to comprehend a single genre in its broader context. Further, most of these pub- lications are scattered in diverse obscure and ephemeral journals or consist of limited-edition books that are scarcely available in their country of origin, not to mention elsewhere.1 Some of the most outstanding studies of individual genres or regions display what might seem to be a surprising lack of familiar- ity with relevant publications produced elsewhere, due not to any incuriosity on the part of authors but to the poor dissemination of works within (as well as 2 Peter Manuel outside) the Caribbean.

  • Corporeal Sounding: Listening to Bomba Dance, Listening to Puertorriqueñxs
    HERMENEUTIC LOOPS Corporeal Sounding: Listening to Bomba Dance, Listening to puertorriqueñxs Jade Power-Sotomayor This article explores the danced sounding practice of Afro Puerto Rican bomba, the oldest extant music and dance form from the archipelago. This centuries-old practice that both celebrates the sacred and registers the quotidian comprises improvised drumming, dancing and singing that takes place in the batey—the Taíno word used to denote ball courts as well as the ceremonial space of the areito and today commonly used in Puerto Rico to refer to a space that is communal nonetheless separated from the outside world. The big barrel drums, representative of not just conduits to memory and ancestral knowledge but also the lifeblood of the many ancestors who made possible their survival through generations of brutality, sit at the centre of the batey, awaiting the flesh in whose service they will sound. While many Afrodiasporic traditions link dancing to drumming and drumming to dancing, bomba is notable for the particular way the dancer’s moves are marked with rhythmic synchronicity by the lead drum. What follows below is a sustained reflection on this unique aspect of bomba practice. I offer a reading of the specific ways this exchange necessitates a practice of listening that is both resistive and restorative and, as such, maps a relational praxis that effectively reroutes both nationalist filiations and liberal investments in individual agency and liberation. The many notes that frame this text are part of this map and serve as the guiderails that help deliver this story. Learning to Listen Sometimes you don’t know you have something to say until you start saying it.

All are encouraged to log on, watch, move, screen and comment as we celebrate our elders, our ancestors, and our younger generations.

Revista Transcultural de Música Transcultural Music Review #9 (2005) ISSN:1697-0101 “Somos Cubanos!“ – timba cubana and the construction of national identity in Cuban popular music Patrick Froelicher Abstract The complex processes that led to the emergence of salsa as an expression of a “Latin” identity for Spanish-speaking people in New York City constitute the background before which the Cuban timba discourse has to be seen. Timba, I argue, is the consequent continuation of the Cuban “anti-salsa-discourse” from the 1980s, which regarded salsa basically as a commercial label for Cuban music played by non-Cuban musicians. I interpret timba as an attempt by Cuban musicians to distinguish themselves from the international Salsa scene. This distinction is aspired by regular references to the contemporary changes in Cuban society after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Thus, the timba is a “child” of the socialist Cuban music landscape as well as a product of the rapidly changing Cuban society of the 1990s.

  • Gary Nuñez & Plena Libre
    Fernando J Montano Fernando GARY NUÑEZ & PLENA LIBRE PROGRAM There will be an intermission. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Saturday, April 25 at 8 PM Zellerbach Theatre 14/15 Season // 27 PROGRAM NOTES Plena Libre’s performance is centered around the influence and development of African rhythms on Puerto Rican music, mostly present through the rhythms called “plena,” as well as the 18 different rhythmic patterns contained under the name “bomba.” Using the traditional rhythms as a reference, Plena Libre gives the audience a traditional and modern interpretation, which the group has developed by combining the rhythms with different contemporary and international musical expressions (jazz, cumbia, samba, etc.), all of which define Plena Libre’s original style. The performance also includes information about the origins and transformation of these Puerto Rican musical expressions. ABOUT THE ARTISTS Plena Libre With over 15 albums and a 20-year career, multi Grammy® Award-nominated Puerto Rican ensemble Plena Libre continues to tour the world with no end in sight. Led by founder and bassist Gary Nuñez, Plena Libre is recognized for taking the once dormant Puerto Rican plena style of music and reclaiming it for a new generation of listeners to enjoy. The group became instantly popular in Puerto Rico, with National Geographic crediting them among other Puerto Rican acts in “spearheading the Latin invasion of American popular music.” Plena Libre infuses their contemporary Caribbean compositions with a deep sense of unique indigenous musical traditions, known as plena and bomba, which developed on the island over a century ago. Unlike salsa bands, which usually only have two singers, Plena Libre features three vocalists singing in lush three- and four-part harmonies, a musical representation of a traditional community gathering.
