Cumande


Classic merengue with a title that may reflect Haitian Kreyol influence (Sydney Hutchinson quotes some sources for proof of a Haitian work song influence and 'commandeur' contredanse influence). Regardless of its exact origins or of the relationship between merengue and Dominican worksongs, it is quite catchy and cheerful.
