 | | Son music came to Havana in 1920 (see 1920 in music) due to the efforts of legendary groups like Trío Matamoros. | | | Son and nueva trova remain the most popular forms of modern Cuban music, and virtually all Cuban artists play music derived from one of these two genres. | | | Son lyrics are typically decima (ten line), octosyllabic verse, and it is performed in 2/4 time. |

| | Son was essentially a marriage of syncopated African rhythms and percussion with trova's Spanish-derived melodies and string instruments. | | | As son's popularity grew among higher social classes during the '30s, musicians began to move toward a more smoothed-out, genteel sound; around the same time, composer Moisés Simóns scored a huge international hit with his son "El Manisero" ("The Peanut Vendor"), igniting a passion in the United States for Afro-Cuban dance music. | | | Although son is rarely performed exclusively anymore, it remains a strongly rooted tradition that Latin musicians still look to in order to refresh and renew their music. |

| | Cuban Son: A Tradition Reinvented / RootsWorld Recording Review |
| | Rodríguez Calvo's son montuno "La Gente Se Quema" renders soulful tribute to the vitality of the barrio that nurtured his youth, while the title track, an Alvarez son descarga, moves into the realms of cubano jazz, whose reflective side they explore as well on the bolero "Tú Mi Delirio" and "Miramar," a suave danzón mambo. | | | Among the originating son survivors is Septeto Nacional Ignacio Piñeiro, which in its third generation and eighth decade of existence perpetuates its ageless sound signature. | | | Cuba's matchless musical contribution to world music, the son fuses African percussive traditions with Spanish lyrical forms and such European additions as the tres and guitar. |

| | Son drew on African and European musics but was predominantly played by and for Afro-Cubans and was considered vulgar by the elite. | | | The US influence in Cuban music is seen in the use of trumpets in Son and the Jazz influenced big band styles of Benny More among others. | | | References to black culture were in the lyrics not the music, through singing about poor areas in a mock black dialect. |

| | The recording, with the majority of tunes by Torrente, the bassist and leader, is local music at its best, unpretentious with a profound love for the genre, which in this case is the son. | | | This group is part of a new movement that is returning the essence of Afro-Caribbean music back to the fore. | | | Another hot tune, "El Son te Llama - The son is calling you", exemplifies the style and musicality that is so fresh in this group. |
