Mambo (1938 song)
"Mambo" is a 1938 danzón nuevo ritmo by Arcaño y sus Maravillas. It was composed by the band's cellist/multi-instrumentalist Orestes López.[1] The piece includes a final section with syncopated montunos which would give rise to the mambo music genre popularized by Dámaso Pérez Prado and others.
