In New York City’s streets and clubs, immigrant and migrant communities from Cuba and Puerto Rico developed salsa from a local movement to a global phenomenon. Discover how this up-tempo performance of percussive Latin music and Afro-Caribbean-infused dance grew by exploring sources from Rhythm & Power: Salsa in New York. Create a salsa soundmaker to join the beat!
