Son montuno is a subgenre of son cubano developed by Arsenio Rodríguez in the 1940s. Although son montuno ("mountain sound") had previously referred to the sones played in the mountains of eastern Cuba, Arsenio repurposed the term to denote a highly sophisticated approach to the genre in which the montuno section contained complex horn arrangements.

Son sabrosón: antesala de la salsa is a 1999 documentary film directed by Hugo Barroso, part of the series Vengo de Cuba of Cuban music documentaries. [1] It outlines the origins and development of son cubano , including interviews with musicians such as Celia Cruz and Roberto Torres , and musicologists such as Eloy Crespo.
The son dates back to the latter part of the 19th century. Actual names of players and musical groups appear after the then Cuban President, José Miguel Gómez, sent the battalions of the Ejército Permanente away from their native provinces. It was the Permanente from Oriente that brought the son to Havana. [26]
