Spanish Harlem�s musical development thrived between the 1930s and 1980s in New York City. This area was called El Barrio by its inhabitants and Spanish Harlem by all others. It was a neighborhood where musicians from the Caribbean or their descendants organized musical groups; thereby adding to the diaspora that began in Africa and Spain. The music now called salsa had its roots in Cuba; Puerto Rico; and Santo Domingo; and it continued developing onanother island: Manhattan.
