A couple of examples were presented in Behague's introduction to Latin American music. One of his earliest examples was the Mexican Revolution of 1910. He explains: “The year 1910 saw the outbreak of the Mexican Revolution and the beginning of a period of profound transformation in the cultural and artistic life of the countries” (Behague, 1979). . He explains that such an event and the country's leaders paid little to no attention to the classical music scene in Latin America, Mexico and the Caribbean in particular. As a result, a Mexican musician, Julian Carrillo, began to explore microtones. Which leads to a very promising development of music in Latin America. A second major historical event came from slavery in the 18th century and before. Colonizers brought hundreds and thousands of slaves from Africa to North and South America. Along with the slaves came various musical influences such as drums, various performing forces such as drums, and various other instruments. These, among others, are just some of the major historical events that have had a massive influence on Latin America
