Mambos just don't get any friendlier than this. Every section in the orchestra is featured, with lots of fun imitation between upper and lower strings. All parts are in first position, with only one low 2 in the violin 1 part. A nice tutti pizzicato section adds additional challenge to a very simple rhythmic theme. Optional percussion parts make this mambo muy bien!

Mambo Maderas combines the chachacha and the classical mambo with a touch of jazz. It should be played slightly faster than a chachacha and somewhat slower than a mambo. Maderas means wooden, since the piece---aside from the use of percussion---is exlusively performed by woodwind instruments. The choice and number of percussion instruments employed is variable: The composition can either played without any percussion or by using one, two, three, or four percussion instruments.
