Latin American Music
    The region of Latin America contains a very rich variety of cultural and musical heritages. Certain types of Latin American music represent fairly direct lines to the original cultural sources. (For example, some ballad and dance traditions can be traced directly to Europe.) However, the most prevalent musical styles in much of Latin America are those that are the result of various types and degrees of fusion of many different cultural heritages and musical resources.
