Cariño (song)
"Cariño" (English: ''Dear'') is a song recorded by American singer Jennifer Lopez for her second studio album ''J.Lo'' (2001). It was released as a promotional single from the album. Writing and production Guillermo Edghill Jr. chose to create an interpolatation of Mongo Santamaria's "Sofrito", to whose music his father Guillermo Edghill—who had played bass on three albums of and toured live with Santamaría from the 1970s throughout the 1990s—introduced him to as a child. Edghill Jr and the other members of the production team Swing Central Station, Jose Sanchez and Frank Rodriguez, composed and arranged the original track and Sanchez then presented it to Jennifer Lopez & Tommy Mottola. Lopez & Mottola went crazy for the mambo-infused track and immediately started discussing song concepts and writing ideas. However, it took "forever" to develop, according to Lopez, who stated: "I couldn't write it, Cory ooneycouldn't write it. We had other people try to write it. No one ...

Mambo (music)
Mambo is a genre of Cuban dance music pioneered by the charanga Arcaño y sus Maravillas in the late 1930s and later popularized in the big band style by Pérez Prado. It originated as a syncopated form of the danzón, known as danzón-mambo, with a final, improvised section, which incorporated the ''guajeos'' typical of son cubano (also known as ''montunos''). These ''guajeos'' became the essence of the genre when it was played by big bands, which did not perform the traditional sections of the danzón and instead leaned towards swing and jazz. By the late 1940s and early 1950s, mambo had become a "dance craze" in the United States as its associated dance took over the East Coast thanks to Pérez Prado, Tito Puente, Tito Rodríguez and others. In the mid-1950s, a slower ballroom style, also derived from the danzón, cha-cha-cha, replaced mambo as the most popular dance genre in North America. Nonetheless, mambo continued to enjoy some degree of popularity into the 1960s and new ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Horn (music)
A horn is any of a family of musical instruments made of a tube, usually made of metal and often curved in various ways, with one narrow end into which the musician blows, and a wide end from which sound emerges. In horns, unlike some other brass instruments such as the trumpet, the bore gradually increases in width through most of its length—that is to say, it is conical rather than cylindrical. In jazz and popular-music contexts, the word may be used loosely to refer to any wind instrument, and a section of brass or woodwind instruments, or a mixture of the two, is called a horn section in these contexts. Types Variations include: *Lur (prehistoric) *Shofar *Roman horns: ** Cornu **Buccina * Dung chen *Dord * Sringa * Nyele *Wazza *Alphorn *Cornett *Serpent *Ophicleide *Natural horn **Bugle **Post horn *French horn *Vienna horn *Wagner tuba *Saxhorns, including: **Alto horn (UK: tenor horn), pitched in E **Baritone horn, pitched in B * Valved bugles, including ** contr ...
