Bright, lively and extremely appealing, this spellbinding Latin-flavored concert work displays all the harmonic color and syncopated rhythms one expects to find in this popular style. The wide range of percussion instruments add to the exotic flavor and overall hypnotic effect that the alluring melodies create. The intriguing title has a double meaning in that the music is in the style of a sultry rhumba and rhumba is also a term used for a group of rattlesnakes.
