I am in 7th grade and we are playing this song for our next concert because i am jazz band. I play Trumpet and our highest note is a high G. your percussion section is pretty good
My jazz band is going to use this song for the closing of our winter concert. I play bari sax. Manteca is my favorite song I've ever played in any band! We probably won't sound that good because we're a middle school band but our teacher says we play like a high school group. I can't wait! I love the part when everyone plays percussion. Oh, and also the part that goes trumpet trill, alto/tenor sax trill, trombone/bari sax BLAT! :)
hey r 7th and 8th jazz band playin this in a high skool jazz comp and r brass is sorta shaky but the sax and rythem kiks ass (me 1st tenor) ill post the vid wen we play
haha, i love how all bad recordings of this site dizzy and the arranger. It's totally a luciano chano pozo song, and dizzy just wrote it down.

I believe in the past two years, there was a drummer. However, he graduated in 2008 so I don't know about this year.
