nueva canción  

Definition

  • The nueva canción (new song) is, without a doubt, the most important musical movement of the second half of the 20th century in Latin America. It is also known as canción de protesta (protest song) or canción comprometida (politically engaged song) because it accompanied the rise of social protests of the 1960s.
