Miguel Matamoros Cuba’s Trío Matamoros brought son music to the United States in the 1930s. 8 SYNCOPATION One of the trademark sounds of Latin music is syncopation. Syncopation is the stressing of a beat that is not normally stressed, or the skipping of a strong beat. Syncopation interrupts the smooth flow of the rhythm in a piece of music. The changeable rhythms of Latin music are part of its lively, danceable appeal and an element of any good Latin dance song. Forms of music such as jazz also use syncopation. was a brilliant songwriter. Many of the trio’s hits of the 1920s and the 1930s blended son and bolero. These hits include “Son de la Loma” (“They Come from the Hill”), “El Que Siembra Su Maíz” (“He Who Sows His Corn”), and “Lágrimas Negras” (“Black Tears”). The bolero-son style captured the attention of the music world. Trío Mat- amoros toured in Latin America, the United States, and Europe. They often performed at clubs in New York City in the 1930s and the 1940s. Their success helped pave the way for other son artists in the United States. CUBA CONTINUES TO SHINE Rita Montaner was born in Cuba in 1900. She was a noted pianist by the time she was fifteen. By the early 1920s, she was well known in Cuba and across much of Latin America as a pianist and a vocalist. Montaner began recording songs for the U.S. company Columbia Rita Montaner, pictured here in the 1940s, sang memorable crossover songs such as “El Manicero” (“The Peanut Vendor,” 1928).

    American Music Review The H. Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music Conservatory of Music, Brooklyn College of the City University of New York Volume XLVI, Issue 2 Spring 2017 Dominican Migrants, Plural Identities, and Popular Music Angelina Tallaj, Guttman Community College, CUNY In an age of globalization marked by proliferating population movements, ever-faster communication, and cultural exchanges across nations, diasporic communities strive, often through music, to maintain connection to a homeland identity. In doing so they create new styles in adapting to their new host society, and offer musi- cal experiences that complicate the home/host binary positions. Dominican-American music, while influenced by American genres such as R&B, house, and hip hop, also features specifically Dominican Spanish lyrics and distinctive local Dominican rhythms to assure a continuity with Dominicans’ identity as Latinos or Hispanics. Dominican genres in New York, especially merengue and bachata, have become symbols of Latinidad (pan- Latino solidarity) for many migrants from Latin America precisely because they blend local and global genres of music. These genres mix rural Latin American cultural references with urban elements from New York City in ways that Spanish-speaking groups, who also experience newly fluid racial and ethnic identities away from their homeland, can identify with. Experiencing these Dominican-American genres is a way for migrants to rei- magine new and more porous borders of geography, race, and history. They combine past and present, rural and urban, and home and host countries in ways that create new and more plural models of identities. For many Dominicans, New York is just another Dominican city: we call upper Manhattan Quisqueya Heights, citing the Taíno Native Indian name for the island of Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
