Journal Article
Mambo mania
1995
Overview
Of African and European parentage, the mambo is the result of a long cross-cultural journey, an example of the kind of sensual alchemy which is a speciality of the Caribbean. Mambo, conga and bongo were originally Bantu names for musical instruments that were used in rituals and gradually became secular. Mambo means \"conversation with the gods\" and in Cuba designates a sacred song of the Congos, Cubans of Bantu origin.
