Nueva Trova

While expressing progressive sentiments similar to those of Nueva Canción , it had the advantage of support from the Cuban government, since it promoted the Cuban Revolution . During the 1960s, the genre's first Cuban stars arose, including Silvio Rodríguez , Vicente Feliu , Carlos Varela and Pablo Milanés . At roughly the same time, Puerto Ricans like Roy Brown , Andrés Jiménez , Antonio Caban Vale , Haciendo Punto En Otro Son also became famous. In both Cuba and Puerto Rico, the politicized lyrics of nueva trova were very often critical of the United States; Puerto Rican singers were especially critical of Vieques ' continued use as a United States Navy training ground.

Despite the criticism of the United States government, many nueva trova artists were inspired by the likes of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez , as well as the British band The Beatles , Chile an revivalist Violeta Parra , Uruguay an Singer-songwriter Daniel Viglietti and the Catalan Protest Singer Joan Manuel Serrat . At approximately the same time as the rise of nueva trova, similar musical genres across the world were increasing in popularity as part of a Roots Revival ; these involved the popularization of traditional music welded with socio-political lyrics. Nueva trova was most closely influenced by South America n (especially Chilean) Nueva Canción , Spanish Nova Canço , Bolivia n Canto Nuevo , Portuguese Canto Livre and Nova Canção , and Brazil ian Tropicalismo .
