TRUMPET LOVE STORY perez prado orchestra

Описание: In this video we play the audio portion of the arrangement that Perez Prado initially called TRUMPET LOVE STORY whose title was later changed to "Historia de un Amor." Perez Prado introdujo el rítmo del mambo en la provincia de la Habana alrededor del 1938 antes de irse de viaje a Nueva York. En aquel entonces Israel López "Cachao" quién era arreglista y bajista del conjunto de Antonio Arcaño y sus Maravillas, le gustó el nuevo rítmo. Oreste Lopez, quien era hermano de Cachao hizo un arreglo a un numero que le llamo Mambo. Cachao introdujo el nuevo rítmo en los salones de la alta sociedad de la Habana. Para vencer cualquier resistencia al nuevo rítmo, lo hermanos Lopez se le ocurre la idea de añadirle un sabor de jazz al estilo de Stan Kenton y Dizzy Gillespie. Es así que el mambo cambia del formato de conjunto al formato de una grán banda con 4 sáxofones, 4 trompetas, piano, bajo, maracas, tumbadora, timbales y el resto de los hierros. Como Cachao era bajista, hizo hincapie en el destaque de este instrumento, que junto con los sáxofones a la manera del Jazz norteamericano, forma un enlace melódico nunca antes obtenido. El resultado fué una mezcla de jazz y rumba pero con un compás más marcado y más rítmico.
