1995 studio recording — La Tierra del Olvido
Music by Carlos Vives · Arrangement by Iván Benavides · Transcription/adaptation by Christian Valdés
A complete, performance-ready chart for "Pa' Mayté," the champeta-fused vallenato hit written by Carlos Vives, Iván Benavides, and Ernesto Ocampo — the second single from Vives's landmark 1995 album La Tierra del Olvido, and a tribute to Mayté Montero, the gaitera in his band La Provincia. This adaptation captures the full arrangement — accordion out front over the rhythm section — hand-engraved by Noted Sound for bands who want to add this Carlos Vives staple to their book. Includes a full score and parts for accordion, piano, guitar, bass, and percussion. Clean, modern engraving with clear rehearsal marks throughout, built for real rehearsal and performance use — whether you're running a full vallenato/champeta combo or a scaled-down group. A joyful, coast-of-Colombia classic, ready to add straight to your band's book.
