    Few of u may remember im currently taking jazz lessons in the sch that i work in. Was telling my teacher i wanna try out Samba (tho i know a bit), but he showed me a Mambo piece instead. I was like, ok, try out something new.

    So here's one of my practice sessions after 1 lesson which was last week, and it was my 1st try in a Mambo song. Have to say the off-beat bass is pretty challenging to grasp at 1st, now a bit better heh :p Middle part of the montunos u hear are my attempt at sight reading at the fast beat, coz i didnt know i was supposed to practice that part too, hence not so fluent...

    Mambo Inn by yours truly, Jo

    Did you enjoy learning the mambo style of music or would you have preferred to have done the Samba?
