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. Instrumentation: flute, soprano saxophone/clarinet, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone and percussion/1-4 player (ad lib)
