Kiribá - Bán Rarra

Traditional Cuban folkloric music with a fun, nostalgic feel. This track features a female Spanish vocal and a mid-tempo groove.

What is Kiribá?
Kiribá is a style of Cuban Son that originated in the Baracoa region of eastern Cuba. It developed alongside Changüí, and the fusion of Kiribá and Nengón eventually led to the creation of Changüí. Where Nengón evolved, it became Son.

Like Nengón, Kiribá is characterized by the alternating call-and-response structure between a soloist and chorus. It is traditionally played with tres, bongós, maracas, güiro, and marímbula—an ensemble similar to Changüí. These styles continue to be practiced in the mountain regions of Santiago de Cuba and Guantánamo.
