 The tipico merengue features a slightly faster tempo, and
keeps the accordion sound, as opposed to
the jazz-influenced music of Luis Alberti who had adapted merengue to a
more urban ethos in the 1940s.The style of Angel Viloria's band
however reflected more of the urban Alberti influence than the name admits;
the accordion was of course, quite tipico.By 1953, the band had split up, with Viloria, Quintero, and Valladares forming separate groups.
