Paradoxically, the meeting between the two main types of music of the Americas (jazz and samba), it was the work of those who had invented and had made history and established features. The American jazz is essentially due to the influence of African rhythms mixed with European music and flokloristica whites. Similarly, but with completely different rules, Brazilian music, born from the rhythms imported by the slaves with the Portuguese music and rhythms of indigenous (Brazilian music, like his people, has three souls). In both situations, the European musical tradition, religious traditions (Protestant north, the south Catholic), were mixed with the temperament of the blacks who were the main performers, innovators and soul of the music of the two sub-continents. The real "fusion" between the North American jazz and samba (music), Brazil (in their modern form) takes place instead of by white musicians. The bossa nova was a form of samba totally reinvented by a diverse group such as geographical location, but quite as homogeneous social characteristics: it was the white middle class society, modern and inspired by the new wind of economic revival and nationalist, of Brazil Juscelino Kubitschek. The merged jazz with which, by its inventors themselves, in the United States in the early sixties, was a successful musician as Stan Getz, which was very true to the black jazz, but that was one of the leaders the coolest music, loved by the general public, white, that he bought the discs and voted in the referendum of specialist publications.

Jazz Cubano form the backbone of 'much broader universe of Latin Jazz and is characterized by rhythms combined with jazz melodies and progressions of stringed instruments. The Latin influences have begun to merge with the background music in the United States in 1930. Some Latin dances like salsa and merengue continue to feel its influence today.

Latin music has its own unique sound. The eight notes are played straight, do not swing like the other styles of jazz but syncopated. A wide variety of Latin percussion supports the creation of musical orchestras. The Congas, which are of Afro-Cuban origin are played with the palms of the hands and fingers, even the Bongos are Afro-Cubans, but they are taller and thinner. Other common tools are timbales, claves and bells.

The Cuban Jazz, simplifying a lot, is a mixture between the Jazz and the Son, one of its interpreters remember Mario Bauza, world-class trumpeter who emigrated to the United States in the thirties. The Cuban Jazz has the merit of to enter into any modern jazz orchestra percussion Cuban of African descent. Among its leading exponents include Chucho Valdes, Arturo Sandoval, the group Irakere, Bareto Guillermo, Emiliano Salvador and Chano Pozo. ... but the list can go on forever.
