  • Cuba's world renowned music scene

If the Caribbean was to be an orchestra, then Cuba would most certainly be its maestro. All you have to do is walk into one of the various casas de la trova (house of music) to understand that on this island, music and dance are like second nature to the Cubans, but also a custom that didn't begin overnight. Cuban music has its roots in Spain and Africa that go back to the time of colonialism. Since then, Havana has developed its own style, drawing inspiration from styles as varied as bolero, salsa and North American jazz.
