With Mozart y Mambo, Sarah Willis has created an album combining the music of one of the most famous classical music composers, W. A. Mozart and traditional Cuban music.

The album is Exclusively Available in Stereo DSD 512, DSD 256, DSD 128 and DSD 64 from NativeDSD.

“Mozart would have been a good Cuban” she was told in Havana, and this is what inspired her to create this project. With the Havana Lyceum Orchestra and its exuberant conductor José Antonio Méndez Padrón, she presents works for French horn and orchestra by W. A. Mozart (the Concerto No. 3 K. 447 and the Concert Rondo K. 371) alongside a ‘Rondo alla Mambo’ (inspired by the Concerto No. 3 K. 447) a ‘Sarahnade Mambo’, a Cuban ‘Eine Kleine Nachtmusik’, and other treats.

A number of well-known local musicians take part in this recording, which also pays tribute to Cuban repertoire with two songs including ‘Dos Gardenias’, made famous by Ibrahim Ferrer and the Buena Vista Social Club.
