Danzonete
sung version of danzón, developed in the 1930s. (You can optionally add others like mambo"> Mambo or Cha-cha-chá here, as they also evolved from danzón in Havana.)
Mambo
In Cuban music, especially in salsa and son,
the " mambo" section typically refers to a brassy, rhythmically intense instrumental break,
often featuring repetitive horn lines, call-and-response patterns, and building energy toward the climax of a song.
