The Mala Maña orchestra is back with a new single, entitled Ay Muchachita, a production by the group’s founder Francesco Mascaretti, who also took care of the arrangements for the Maña Music Record label .
For the occasion, the band welcomed the new Cuban singer Javi Arman .The song also includes a quote that pays homage to a great Italian musician, Nino Rota , with a hint of the famous “Speak Softly Love” (the theme from The Godfather ).
The musicians who took part in the recordings are :
Yoandy Vera on the trumpet,
Lorenzo Morrone on the conga,
Francesco Mascaretti on timbales and drums,
Yandro Reinoso on the bass and
Andrea Giubilei on the piano.
The video was shot entirely in Milan, and is partly inspired by the film The Hangover, here in a more gypsy version: three friends wake up in the countryside and together they will try to remember all the events that happened at a party the night before, with one memory in particular impressed on their thoughts.
The direction is by Luca Fagnani , while the dancers who took part are Camila Domínguez (in the role of the protagonist, the “muchachita”), Erika Elizalde, Jessica Patella and Luca Fagnani. In the role of the three friends we have Javi Arman, FrancescoMascaretti and Andrea Giubilei
