      ab: In this study, I undertake a comparative analysis of New York, Puerto Rico and Cuba's Latin music scenes, both prior to as well as after the Cuban Revolution. Three questions are addressed in particular: How did the musical relations between New York and Puerto Rico's Latin music scenes develop? How did these two music scenes relate to Cuba's music scene? What is the significance of the New-York-Puerto-Ricoconnection in the emergence and early development of salsa music? My thesis is that out of the fusion of New York and Puerto Rico's social music aesthetics and performance practices the main stylistic characteristics that eventually came to define salsa music came about. The study, thus, strives to illustrate the significance of the location in the production of popular music, while proposing concomitantly a new theoretical framework for such an analysis.
