Embracing Improvisation with Timba

Timba is a Cuban counterpart of salsa music, and is often understood to be a sub-category of salsa.

However, the historical development of timba has been quite independent of the development of salsa in the United States, Colombia, and Puerto Rico and as a result, the music has its own trademark aspects.

A highly aggressive type of music, with rhythm and "swing" taking precedence over melody and lyricism, timba music is rhythmically complex, and persuasively entertaining.
