As played by La Sonora Ponceña (Live)
Music by Ramón Luis Rodríguez · Arrangement by Enrique "Papo" Lucca · Transcription/adaptation by Christian Valdés
A complete, performance-ready chart for "Timbalero," the hard-driving salsa classic written by Ramón Luis Rodríguez and arranged by pianist/bandleader Enrique "Papo" Lucca for La Sonora Ponceña's 1980 album New Heights. This adaptation captures the full horn-driven big-band arrangement — hand-engraved by Noted Sound for bands who want to add this Sonora Ponceña staple to their book. Includes a full score and parts for two trumpets, two trombones, flute, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophone, guitar, piano, bass, and percussion. Clean, modern engraving with clear rehearsal marks throughout, built for real rehearsal and performance use — whether you're running a full salsa orchestra or a scaled-down combo. A cornerstone of Puerto Rico's "Sonora de Oro" catalog, ready to add straight to your band's book.
