@YoungFlutest The original version (NOT made for marching bands, called La Virgen De La Macarena) went a much slower tempo. The "El Toro Caliente" arrangement upped the tempo.
Honestly, I like it at 160 much better.
And on a side note, I'm playing this show with the OKState Marching Band this year!
Our high school Marching band is marching El Torro Caliente this year for our "Musica Latina" show, but of course ours is a dumbed down version of this, but its still good. I play trombone for the Russellville High School Marching Hundred, look us up, theres a couple of vids of our Beatles Love show we did last year, tho i appologize for the video quality, band parents with cameras isnt the best idea ever...
@YoungFlutest Yup, I had just learned about the whole "La Macarena" part until like 10 minutes before I saw your comment

Maybe playin slower makes it more dramatic? naww, idk. They dont even sound as good as they should, really. Playing slower gets bored after a while.

My High school played it much much faster than this.. I expected more from a college. Oh well. Everyone has different ways.
