This song is a graceful and refi ned Mexican Danzon full of humor. The 'Danzón' is a rhythm of Cuban origin, but since the early 20th century it developed deep roots in Mexico and is also considered part of the popular culture of that country. The 'Danzón' was created by the Cuban composer Miguel Faílde (born ca. 1879), and it is derived from the European 'Contradanza' (see under Aniceto Rondón) which was infl uenced by African traditions and became known the Creole Cuban Dance or Habanera. It is a sen sual, expressive and syncopated dance. Usually accompanied by fl ute, timbales, guiro, claves and piano. Other dances, such as the the 'Cuban Son,' 'Chachachá' and 'Mambo' originated from the 'Danzón.'.
