Spanish Eyes is a romantic ballad that draws inspiration from traditional Spanish music, incorporating elements of bolero and flamenco. This song was a hit for many artists, including Elvis Presley, Al Martino and Engelbert Humperdinck.  The violins have the melody throughout while the cello maintains the syncopated Latin rhythm.

La Bamba has no direct English translation, but the dance that is referred to is presumably connected with the Spanish verb bambolear - which means to sway, shake or wobble. It is a lively dance, for sure. A traditional version of this dance is often performed at weddings. This String Trio arrangement has the 2 violins in close harmony on the melody - like violins in a Mariachi Ensemble. The cello maintains the familiar walking ostinato bass line throughout. Ole!
