Cuban musicologist Maria Teresa Linares argues, somewhat inconclusively,
that the punto in general derives from the fandango (El punto cubano [Santiago de Cuba: Editorial Oriente, 1999], 26-36). A tonada espanola may be heard in part 1 of the film Routes of Rlythm (prod. Eugene Rosow and Howard Dratch, 1989). I am gratefuil to Yavet Boyadjiev for calling this tonada to my attention. 34. One such piece can be found on the compact disc Al Fandango, by the Hermanos Angulo band, Alfa Records CDAR-1008/19 (1999). 35.

The voicings of the final chord by the laud (or a similar instrument) may vary. A zapateo with these features can be heard on La musica delpueblo de Cuba, EGREM LD 3441 (n.d.). Argeliers Leon presents a similar excerpt as typical of the Cuban puntoguajira, in Del canto y el tiempo (Havana: Editorial Letras Cubanas, 1984), 112. The phrases recur in these and other interrelated Cuban campesino genres. 37. As in the previous example, the chord voicings should be taken as approximate and variable, and either a 6/8 or 3/4 meter could be indicated.

1996), 31.
