Cuban musical theatre has its own distinctive style and history. From the 18th century (at least) to modern times, popular theatrical performances included music and often dance as well. Many composers and musicians had their careers launched in the theatres, and many compositions got their first airing on the stage. In addition to staging some European operas and operettas, Cuban composers gradually developed ideas which better suited their creole audience. Characters on stages began to include elements from Cuban life, and the music began to reflect a fusion between African and European contributions.

| - Cuban musical theatre has its own distinctive style and history. From the 18th century (at least) to modern times, popular theatrical performances included music and often dance as well. Many composers and musicians had their careers launched in the theatres, and many compositions got their first airing on the stage. In addition to staging some European operas and operettas, Cuban composers gradually developed ideas which better suited their creole audience. Characters on stages began to include elements from Cuban life, and the music began to reflect a fusion between African and European contributions. Recorded music was to be the conduit for Cuban music to reach the world. The most recorded artist in Cuba up to 1925 was a singer at the Alhambra, Adolfo Colombo. Records show he recorded about 350 numbers between 1906 and 1917. The first theatre in Havana opened in 1775, called the Coliseo, and later the Teatro Principal. The first Cuban-composed opera appeared in 1807. Theatrical music was hugely important in the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century; its significance only began to wane with the change in political and social weather in the second part of the 20th century. Radio, which began in Cuba in 1922, helped the growth of popular music because it provided publicity and a new source of income for the artists. (en)

I personaggi sul palco cominciarono ad avere elementi della vita di Cuba, e la musica cominciò a riflettere la fusione tra la tradizione europea e quella africana. Le registrazioni musicali permisero alla musica cubana di raggiungere il resto del mondo. L'artista con il maggior numero di registrazioni nel 1925 era un cantante del teatro Alhambra, . Le registrazioni testimoniano che tra il 1906 e il 1917 aveva inciso 350 brani. Il primo teatro aprì a L'Avana nel 1775, con il nome di Coloseo, successivamente cambiato in Teatro Principal. La prima opera cubana fu messa in scena nel 1807. La musica teatrale fu importante nel XIX secolo e nella prima metà del XX secolo; l'importanza del teatro andò declinando durante la seconda metà del XX secolo, a causa dei cambiamenti politici in atto nell'isola. La radio, che entrò a Cuba nel 1922, aiutò ad aumentare la popolarità della musica e divenne una nuova fonte di reddito per gli artisti. (it)
