I am wondering what sort of musical instruments are common in Aruba. Are there any musical instruments that were invented in Aruba? I would love to learn about this!
The music of Aruba is quite unique and has its own special kind of flair to it. Due to the mix of cultures you will find native, African and European influences in the music. I am not sure what instruments they use though.
The only thing I really pay attention to when I'm there are the steel drums. I just love the sound of steel drums and the only place I ever get to hear them live is in the Caribbean.
