Произходът на ромите се корени в древността. За тяхна прародина се счита Индия, но след V век от н.е. те се разселват по света. В Европа идват между ІХ и ХІ век - първо на Балканите, а през XV век - и в останалата част на континента. Съвместният живот с различни етнически общности, безспорно е повлиял върху тяхната култура, но и днес много елементи от спецификата и характерните черти на музиката и танците им са съхранени в най-голяма степен на Балканите.
