Afro-Cuban music is a vibrant fusion of African and Cuban musical traditions, blending rhythmic complexity with rich melodies and dynamic instrumentation. Rooted in the percussion-driven sounds of rumba, son, and mambo, it incorporates syncopated rhythms, horn arrangements, and call-and-response vocals. This genre emphasizes polyrhythms through congas, bongos, and timbales, while bass lines and piano montunos provide a driving groove. Afro-Cuban music bridges traditional folk influences with jazz and salsa elements, creating an infectious, danceable energy that continues to evolve across continents.
