Conjunto

This type of orchestra arises in Cuba toward the mid 40's, playing a repertoire including the son, the bolero and the guaracha.

The Conjunto orchestra is made up of a piano, a double bass, bongo, conga, güiro, maracas, clave, a wind section of up to four instruments (generally trumpets) and a guitar, accompanied by one or two singers. Sometimes the tres replaces the piano.
