Today everyone talks about fusion music. Fusion music refers to a mixture of different genres of
music from different places in the world. For example, the Colombian, Andrea Echeverri, mixes
alternative rock and traditional Colombian music and Ex-Centric Sound System from the U.S. mixes
hip-hop, funk, West African, and Caribbean music.
Music fusion isn't new. In fact rock music is a result of fusing various different genres of music. Rock
music developed in the 1950s from rock & roll, but it has its roots in many other kinds of music. One
influence of rock music is Rhythm and Blues (R & B), an African-American music genre of the 1940s
which has its roots in blues and jazz. These types of music began in the early 20th century in the
African-American communities in the South of the U.S. They are a mixture of African and European
music traditions.
Another kind of music that influenced rock music is country music which also developed in the south
of the U.S., but among the white communities. Rock stars like Elvis Presley started as country
singers. Country music has its roots in American Folk music, which originated from the English and
Irish immigrants in the 18th and 19th centuries.
This just shows that no music is original. It is all a result of the fusion of existing genres.
