Description:
Dedicated to the memory of Tito Puente. Yo Recuerdo A Mi Hermano Tito is a Latin-flavored composition somewhere between a cha-cha and a mambo. It could be called either a fast cha-cha or a slow mambo. Timbales should be the featured solo instrument, as that was Tito's specialty 'axe'. There is no part for timbales on the score, but that shouldn't be a problem for a seasoned timbales player. After an eight-measure intro reminiscent of that on the Latin standard 'Mambo Inn'., the ensemble goes through the opening chorus featuring alternately brass and saxes on the highly 'latin-esque' melody.This is followed by an 8 bars long interlude-modulation from 'F' major to A-flat major leading to the one chorus piano soso, after which there's a 'montuno' section in which the piano starts out playing the melody for about 8 measures. Soon the rhythm section gives way to conga drum(s)and timbale(or trap drummer if no timbales are present). Either timbales or trap drums play an extended solo, building in intensity as it goes. This entire section appears on the score and parts as an empty four-measures repeated indefinitely. After timbales or drums have done their thing, the ensemble takes it out with a shout chorus followed by the ending which is the same as the introduction. A medium-difficult chart, Yo Recuerdo...should make an interesting, fairly exciting addition to your large Jazz ensemble library.
