Salsa dura, also known as salsa brava or salsa gorda, is a style of salsa music developed in the 1970s with an emphasis on the instrumental part of the music (piano, bass, horns and percussion) over the lead vocals. The genre originated in New York, where large ensembles such as Fania All-Stars adapted the salsa genre to a descarga format. In modern times, bands like Orquesta SCC, Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Wayne Gorbea, and Jimmy Bosch perform and represent the syle around the world.
