Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The music of Sri Lanka originates in cultural traditions deriving from three influences the religious practices of Buddhism, the aftereffects of Portuguese colonization, and the commercial and historical influence of Indian culture specifically, Bollywood cinema. The Theravada sect of Buddhism has influenced Sri Lankan Music since Buddhism arrived in Sri Lanka two millennia ago. Portuguese colonizers arrived centuries after the Buddha, in the mid 15th century, bringing with them cantiga ballads, ukuleles and guitars as well as desendants of africa referred to, historically, as kaffrinhas who brought with them a style of music now referred to as baila. The people of these two regions, and the musical traditions they brought with them, served to contribute further to the diverse musical roots of modern Sri Lankan music.
