Just found this channel. Because of chronic health issues I can't travel and if ever again then not to countries that are far away. So this is a great way to "travel" a little nevertheless.
We hope our music transports you and at least brings a taste of the world to your life.

The Caribbean island known by its natives as Quisqueya ("Mother of the Earth") was one of the first places Christopher Columbus bumped into on his quest for the East Indies. He renamed it Hispaniola and established the first permanent European settlement in the Americas on the southeastern coast in 1493, a port named Santo Domingo that would ultimately become the capital of the Dominican Republic. Today, Haiti occupies the western half of the island and the Dominican Republic the east.
The music style most often associated with the Dominican Republic is merengue, an energetic dance rhythm that is popular throughout the Americas. As with most music in the Americas, merengue is a blend of African and European elements with barely detectable traces of a long-extinct indigenous culture. The true origins of merengue are lost to history, but the earlies written mention of the genre occured in the mid-1800s, just after 20 years of Haitian occupation and the establishment of a republic independent from Spain.
Traditional merengue instrumentation includes a barrel-shaped, double headed drum called the tambora, a diatonic accordion and a güira, a cylindrical metal scraper. The alto saxophone is a common wind instrument in traditional merengue, although the most popular form of merengue is played with a large ensemble that includes mutliple saxophones and trumpets, keyboards, bass, and an entourage of peppy singers with crisp choreography.
Visitors to the Dominican Republic or Dominican neighborhoods in the United States may be surprised to discover that merengue is not the only local music form. Indeed, the music which most commonly blares out of car stereos, bars and storefronts today is a unique and largely undiscovered style called bachata. An enchanting genre that is reminiscent of Cuban son or Mexican ranchera, bachata has long been part of Dominican daily life, but has only recently been embraced as an important and unique cultural expression.
Bachata's instrumentation is distinct from traditional merengue, although bachata ensembles regularly include merengues in their repertoire. The guitar, or its smaller, tinny sounding cousin the requinto, is the most prominent instrument in bachata, as opposed to the accordion in merengue. The strong plucking technique and sharp intonation of the bachata guitar makes it instantly recognizable. The standard percussion instrument are bongos as opposed to the tambora in merengue, and while maracas were originally used in bachata, the güira scraper is now more common.
Bachata lyrics are almost always about heartbreak or unrequited love. Indeed, it is commonly referred to as música de amargue, or music of bitterness.
Long considered disreputable music of the lower classes, bachata was not played on commercial radio until recently, even though it had a huge grassroots following. In many ways the history of bachata is similar to that of American blues. Originally a rural guitar-based form, bachata was the music of the poor and uneducated. The lyrics often contained raw double-entendres and bawdy sexual innuendoes. While most Dominicans listened to bachata, it was not considered an important musical form.
The immensely popular musician Juan Luis Guerra almost single-handedly legitimized bachata, turning it into a source of cultural pride on par with merengue, and revolutionizing the Dominican music industry. His 1990 release, Bachata Rosa, was a woldwide smash, setting sales records and earning Guerra a Grammy for Best Tropical Album. While the album featured a number of sophisticated and luxuriously arranged merengues, Guerra focused on bachata. Guerra also greatly influenced popular attitudes about the African influences in Dominican music. He recognized the African roots of popular Dominican music and emphasized them in his recording by incorporating elements of contemporary African music. Today, other popular artists like Kinito Mendez, Los Toros Band, Chichi Peralta and others regularly reference African traditions and styles in their music. Unfortunately, we could not include Guerra's music on this collection due to licensing difficulties.
The music of the Dominican Republic is surprisingly diverse and varied. There are many different types of merengue, for example, including merengue cibaeño, perico ripiao and pambiche. There is even a strong tradition of Dominican son, a style that is closely related to its Cuban counterpart, but has a slightly more bouncy rhythm and uses unique melodies and song structures (indeed, many locals claim the son is on Dominican origin and was brought to Cuba by Dominican immigrants).
Our collection focuses on the guitar-based music of bachata, largely because we found so many appealing bachata songs when doing research on this project, although we also include a few merengues and examples of Dominican son. Bachata has also been largely ignored outside of the Dominican community. Mainstream guides to world or Latin music rarely mention bachata, or if they do, incorrectly call it a variation of merengue. We hope that once you hear the music on this collection a new world will be opened to you. We encourage you to use this album as a starting point for further exploration of the Dominican Republic's rich musical expression.
