Transition from Maracatú
After the end of Maracatú is whistled, all instruments play a final hit on the downbeat, and the gonguê continues at an immediately faster tempo, alone until the introduction to Mangue is called.

All Agogôs play the Gonguê part on the lower bell. If there are multiple bells, some can rest here.

Other Rides
Mangue has no breaks; it simply has several ride patterns that are all called in with a hand signal (number of fingers indicates which pattern) and four whistle blows.

End
The end is called with four whistle blows. Everyone plays in unison:
