Question
The electric guitar was first introduced to a style of music from this country in the song “Consejo a las mujeres” by Blas Durán. That style was popularized through Radio Guarachita, and its first recording was “Borracho de amor” by José Manuel Calderón. It is not Cuba, but the three main rhythms of that music are the derecho, majao, and mambo. According to legend, this country’s national dance evolved from enslaved workers dragging their chained legs along the ground. The típico, or (*) cibaeño (see-ba-EH-nyo), subtype of the music for that dance uses the tambora drum and güira (GWEE-ra) scraper alongside accordion, in contrast to a similarly-named style from this country’s Francophone western neighbor. For 10 points, name this Caribbean country home to the music and dance styles of bachata and merengue. ■END■
