A “son” is a musical variation which traces its origins to Spain and developed during the 17th and 18th centuries. It is most common in the south of the state and shows influences from the many peoples who have lived here such as indigenous groups, Portuguese, Italians, Africans, French and others. The music is generally performed by harps, violins and guitars, with an occasional wind instrument. Son Huasteco (also called son huapango) is a variety of son played in the north of the state mostly among the Totonaca.
The state orchestra is the Orquestra Sinfónica de Xalapa, created in 1929. The state has also produced a number of prominent musicians such as Agustín Lara, Toña La Negra or María Antonia del Carmen Peregino, Narcisco Serradel, Lorenzo Barcelata and María Greever.
