00:00No one knows where the name and origin of salsa came from,
00:03and why it is so popular.
00:07If salsa came from Africa and the Caribbean,
00:11why is it so popular as a dance and music style from Latin America?
00:16To find out the origin of salsa, let's go back to Cuba in the last century.
00:21When the local Cubans mixed their own music with music from Africa,
00:27it became even more popular when American jazz was mixed.
00:31When the Cubans moved to America,
00:33many lived in El Barrio or Spanish Harlem in New York City.
00:38This is where modern salsa originated.
00:41In the past, different instruments depended on the place.
00:44But most used bongos, congas, maracas, guitar, piano, and violin.
00:52There were also brass and woodwind instruments
00:55such as trumpets, flutes, trombones, and saxophones.
00:59But salsa is not just music, it is also a form of dance.
01:03Salsa dancers can dance from basic to level up.
01:09My question of the day is,
01:10QOTD is Enzo Reynal Corona, 7 years old, from Paranaque.
01:17How do you get help?
01:19Enzo, this is the explanation. Listen.
01:23Let's talk about music in its most basic element, sound.
01:30Sound starts as vibrations,
01:32a reason for the creation of waves in the air.
01:35That's what we hear, and what they call sound waves.
01:39They can travel in the air, even in solids and liquids.
01:43Do you want to hear how these sound waves reach our brain?
01:48Listen.
01:49First, there's sound.
01:51A person is talking.
01:53A car is honking.
01:55A car is honking.
01:57Sound or vibration will bring air to our ears.
02:02The shape is there so that the sound can reach it.
02:06When it enters your ears, it will make your eardrum vibrate.
02:10Your brain will translate the vibrations in the eardrum into sounds.
02:15Different things can create different sound waves.
02:18But all of them are recognized by our brain as different sounds.
02:23That's why we know that the sound of a car is different from the sound of a car.
02:28The bigger the sound, the bigger the sound wave.
02:31And it's more charged with energy.
02:33When the energy of a sound is stronger,
02:36it hits the eardrum stronger.
02:38That's why the brain knows that the sound is stronger.
02:42But if the sound is weak, the force on the eardrum is weak.
02:45That's why the brain knows that the sound is weak.
02:48Our brain is amazed by the amazing things it can do.
02:52I believe!
