In Cuba, there is a special kind of music. It mixes the music from Africa and Spain. People use different instruments and ways of singing and dancing. This mix makes Cuban music very famous and important in the world. One kind of music is called son cubano. It has Spanish guitar sounds and African beats. Long ago, the music from Cuba's first people disappeared because those people did not survive. A lot of African people who were forced to work as slaves, and Spanish people who moved to Cuba, brought their music with them. They had many kinds of dances and music like zapateo and fandango. Later, other dances from Europe like the minuet and waltz became popular in Cuba. Even people from China came later and added to Cuba's music. A man named Fernando Ortiz studied Cuban music. He said the new Cuban music started because African people who worked on sugar farms met with Spanish people from different places. They shared their music and made something new. This is why Cuban music is special and loved by people all over the world.
