El Ritmo del Malec?

El Ritmo del Malec? by Jamie Roth is an original salsa chart that brings authentic style to the jazz ensemble stage–effectively two charts in one. Written at a Grade 3 or 4 level depending on setup, it features a true-to-style groove with montuno and tumbao patterns, supported by optional additional percussion. Alternate bass and piano parts allow ensembles to approach the chart at a more accessible level or step into a more advanced, fully realized salsa feel.A written guide helps rhythm section players progress from the easier parts to more authentic patterns, supporting a natural path to the next level. Solo changes are included for all instruments, along with two fully notated solos that match the recording and provide a strong model for developing improvisers. This chart balances authenticity, flexibility, and educational value. Top trumpet note: A above the staff.tr
