Geocache Description:

Mountain Top Medley #19-Latin
This is the Mountain Top Medley geo-art series! It takes you on a tour of the beautiful Catoctin Mountain Area. In order to solve each geocache, you need to answer a question about a genre of music. There are 20 geocaches in the series, 2 bonus caches, a letterbox hybrid and a CITO event to kick it off.

 


These should all be easy finds. Most will be micros and smalls, but there will be a few regulars. They are all close by one another. I recommend solving all of the puzzles first and attempting them all at once, otherwise you may find yourself going back and forth a bit...


Notice that these caches are in the woods and are around poisonous plants, ticks, bugs, etc... Come prepared and watch out for ticks and snakes!

"Latin music" (Musica latina in Spanish and Portuguese) is a catch-all term used by the music industry to described any music in Spanish mainly from Latin America and Spain regardless of genre. In addition to Spanish-language music, the definition also usually includes Portuguese-language music from Brazil and sometimes Portugal. The term, "Latin music", originates from the United States (US) due to the growing influence of Hispanic and Latino Americans in the American music market beginning in the 1980s. US trade industry groups such as Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Billboard magazine define "Latin music" as a type of release with most of its lyrics in Spanish. Fernando Arenas writes on his book Lusophone Africa: Beyond Independence (2011) that the "umbrella category 'Latin music' has now been adopted on a worldwide scale to market the plethora of styles emerging from the Hispanic world" although he noted that Brazilian and Portuguese music are sometimes labeled as "Latin music" due to its ambiguous meaning.
