Question: Salsa dancing coming from latin america!?
Why is salsa identified with Hisapnic and Latin people!? Why does it seem they are more into it than anyone else!? Or am I mistaken!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Most types of "hispanic/latino" music are actually derived from african sounds the slaves brought with them when the Europeans (aka the spanish or french, depending on the country you live in latin america) brought them to Latin America!. The only exception is Paso Doble and even though most people would classify that as "latino", the best description would be iberian (Spain is located in the iberian peninsula in Europe)!.

As far as why Latinos/Hispanics are identified with salsa (etc) is because these sounds emerged in latin american countries!. Though we can thank the imported african sounds, the fusion occured in latin america!. When a culture adopts and creates a new sound, the population is more than likely to identify itself with it!. However, other cultures seem to start liking the "latino/hispanic" sounds, especially in the US and Europe!. A true dancer is someone who feels the music!.!.!. not who looks like they are "fit" for a genre of music!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
