No Hay Palabras ... (There Are No Words)

The bolero is Cuba's version of the ballad, and this hauntingly beautiful melody with lush orchestrations yields an expressive opportunity for both your alto sax soloist and ensemble. The Paquito D'Rivera-style solo is written out, with extra room left for improvisation and an optional ending cadenza. Rhythm section parts are all completely written out for an authentic and highly emotional performance.
