This epic treatment of the Latin classic is based on Ernesto Lecuona's original piano version of the tune and makes a killer chart for experienced jazzers.From the understated opening Latin groove this chart quickly builds tp a powerful and eloquent musical statement.Next there's an infectious latin groove in the rhythm section to set up a new tempo followed by a written or ad-lib Tenor Sax solo featuring some smokin' background licks.Next the chart cools off into another smouldering section before speeding up all the way until the end for a massive powerhouse finish.There's lot's of room for strong brass sections to really blow and the lead trumpet part's highest note is a D.This is the gold standard of Latin tunes that every band should experience!
