The 'Contradanza' came from Europe to America with the immigration from Spain. In various cities of the Caribbean it mingled with African rhythmic patterns, transforming itself into a rhythmic and syncopated dance. Since the early 19th century it became very popular in the city of Maracaibo, located in western Venezuela, and many composers wrote and developed this genre of music. It evolved into the very popular genre of the 'Gaita Zuliana.'.
