This arrangement beautifully encapsulates the spirit and rhythm of Cuba, offering woodwind ensembles a richly textured and melodically vibrant rendition of one of the island's most celebrated songs.
The ensemble configuration includes SCORE and PARTS for Flute, Oboe, Bb Clarinet, French Horn in F, and Bassoon, crafted to highlight the unique qualities of each instrument while maintaining the integrity and charm of the original melody.
