Notes:: [Unedited] The méringue as a type of contredanse was the major social dance of Haiti. Related to other dance genres of the Caribbean, the méringue crossed the various class lines in Haiti. A fast tempo méringue would be danced by lower classes whereas a slower tempo would be heard in the salons of the middle and upper class. Subject matter for the lyrics could be political or social in nature. The contredanse was a prevalent dance found in Europe and then reshaped after its migration to Haiti. Some African influences can also be found, especially in the use of 5/8 meter, at least as transcribed by some of the ethnomusicologists in the field.
