Yes, you're right, it's a crazy job in terms of the amount of work

Thank you very much! I also really like how the funk on the bongos turned out. I want to transfer a couple more rhythms performed on congas to bongos.

Thank you for your feedback!

Thank you very much!

Gracias! 🙏

Благодарю! :)

Thank you very much for your comment! The rhythms of Salsa and Bachata are played on the basis of the Martillo rhythm. In Salsa, bongocero plays martillo and variations based on it in the verses, and in the choruses he takes a cowbell bongo and plays its rhythm. In Bachata, improvisational inserts are added to the martillo in the form of fast fractions and different breaks. In Merengue, you can also play Martillo and if the rhythm is also played by congas, then add improvisations.

Hello again Sir. Do you suggest any sequence for slow "Baladas". Usually at 65bpm.?

Obrigado pelo comentário! A capacidade de ler notas ajuda muito na aprendizagem. Antes, os livros eram apenas livros, depois vieram as escolas de vídeo e os CDs. Agora, para oportunidades únicas de aprendizagem, o KZfaq ajuda a aprender muito, e combinar diferentes métodos: vídeo + som +notas + repetição em câmera lenta facilita o processo.

Vossa performance e demonstração são ótimas!

Muito obrigado, é bom ler esse comentário! @@agnusize

Welcome to the channel! Have a good practice!

Welcome to the channel!

It's best to start by learning the Martillo rhythm. He's the first in the video. Most Latin American styles of music are played on its basis. For all rhythms, I have given examples from simple to complex, so you can start with the first examples if you are just starting to play.

For ease of study, you can take one bar from any rhythm and play only it. Then separately disassemble the second one like this. then combine them. This is the easiest way. And of course, start practicing at a slow tempo, then, when your hands get used to it, you can gradually increase Tempo.

Perfect thank you!

Martllo and the first simple pattern for all rhythms…i play bongos whitout guide…i m bass player

Grazie per il tuo interesse per il video! Non sono sicuro di aver capito correttamente la domanda. Ritmi avanzati questi sono probabilmente ritmi sviluppati dalla versione tradizionale o mescolati con un altro stile musicale

Thanks for the comment! In the Salsa style, bongos are played mainly to the rhythm of Martillo and improvise based on it. I plan to make a large section on Arabic rhythms, but mainly for the darbuka drum (dumbek). I haven't found enough information on bongos in Arabic rhythms yet, although I understand that any rhythm played on a darbuka can be played on bongos :)

@@Drums-and-Percussion-Grooves Sorry for the ignorance friend! Just started picking up the bongos myself and came across this channel! You have been very informative in my journey! As for the Arabic style sounds. You’re amazing! Can’t wait to see this!!!

Muito obrigado! Eu ainda não consigo entender como me organizar a oportunidade de fornecer notas para aqueles que desejam, muitas vezes me perguntam sobre isso. Eu moro na Rússia e os pagamentos internacionais não estão disponíveis para mim no momento. Posso fazer um vídeo de partituras e adicionar música ao Play Along?

Thanks! 🙏

Спасибо за позитивный отзыв. В разных учебниках немного по разному описывают апликатуру левой руки. В правой все просто. Tb это удар большим пальцем левой руки с фиксацией на коже. Finger - касание пальцами.

Thank you for an interesting question! Son was traditionally performed in Son Clave 3-2, more modern Cuban styles are more common 2-3 and Rumba Clave. Most often, the type of clave in a song is determined by the main melody. If the melody starts due to the beat or in the first beat, then it is considered that the song is in 3-2. If the melody begins with the second beat, then most often this song is 2-3.

Muchas gracias por sus comentarios positivos, ya es un buen agradecimiento. Por desgracia, cuando estaba haciendo este video todavía no había adivinado hacer música adicional para la clase. Tengo una serie de videos con largos play along. Tal vez por jugar bongs con ellos. kzfaq.info/sun/PLYsXiOiqESq0_K_APOhX9GRkqvxP61-ff&si=mYzVj7sBEdxAfMCI

@@darioluque1309 Estoy muy contento de que los videos sean útiles! Buenas prácticas!

Thank you very much! The principle of the game is similar, but the technique of playing with the left hand is slightly different. In this video, I show sound production on congas and combinations of sounds - exercises. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jbCilNyg3bDKkoE.html

Здравствуйте! Рад, что видео пригодится в обучении! Обычно Бонги настраивают в кварту. У меня здесь строй такой: низкий C и высокий F. Видео записывались в разное время и иногда строй был D и G . Высота может быть и другой, это зависит от диаметра бонгов и типа пластика или кожи. На слух настраивают так, что бы высокий бонго начал петь - звенеть (звучать ярко). Кожу при этом после игры лучше чуть приспускать, что бы не растягивалась со временем. С пластиком такой проблемы нет, натянул и забыл.

@@Drums-and-Percussion-Grooves Благодарю за ответ и рекомендации! Желаю Вам успехов в музыке и в развитии канала!

@@vsevolodkair спасибо большое! Хорошей вам практики!

Thank you very much!

I am glad that my video was interesting to you and you practice these rhythms. There are two variants of the game loud and normal. In the video I showed the usual technique. In a small drum, the blow is made with the index finger. The blow is sharp, as if you touch a hot iron with your finger. The finger touches the edge of the drum at the midpoint of the second phalanx of the finger (between the joints of the finger) where soft tissues are. But the impact itself into the membrane occurs with the pad of the fingertip. In the big drum, the blow is done the same way, but the edges of the drum touch the soft tissues of the third phalanx of the finger. This makes the sound more dense. If you want to play loudly, then the blows are applied with three fingers. The striking technique is the same. For the right sound, it is important to tune the drum well. The usual interval for tuning is a quart. For example, the big drum is the note C, and the small one is the note F. Or the notes D and G respectively. All nuts should be stretched evenly, because of this, the overtones sound the same and the sound turns out beautiful. I hope I helped you.

Thank you!

The question is interesting! It depends a lot on the situation. If, for example, there is no percussion in the band, then the drum part includes the Maracas part and the main accents of the percussion part. If there is a percussionist, then you can lighten the drum part and take on the part of Cowbell and Timbales. The situation strongly depends on the style of music and the nature of the arrangement, for example, in Samba, a bass drum can play the Surdo part, and in the Mambo style, a barrel may not be needed, or rare Bombo accents. I have rhythms for a drum kit in my playlists, maybe you will like something in them. kzfaq.info/sun/PLYsXiOiqESq12qZwdZ0jAJBpugiB85v3u

@@Drums-and-Percussion-Grooves that's right. There is no percussionist. If you could make a video showing the use of drum kit, it would help a lot. Thank you.

It was more convenient for me to play with them than just under the metronome. And I decided that it would be easier for others to perceive the rhythm in this way with some support of fine percussion.

I haven't made a bachata video yet. The main rhythm here is Martillo and a large variety of variations and improvisational inserts.

Hello! I haven't done this kind of thing yet. Theoretically, this is possible, you need to think about what format to do it in. To do this through KZfaq services or in another way.

Yes, I first shot them for some time, and then combined them into one big video. Then I began to improve the video, add a slow tempo and a playback for music lessons

May I request for the link sir?

Gracias por el interesante envío. Para instrumentos de percusión sin un tono específico, se utiliza una clave especial "neutral". Su propósito es diferente de la asignación del resto de las teclas en el sentido de que no muestra el tono de la nota, sino que simplemente asigna un Stan para indicar el lote de un instrumento de percusión en particular. Para los tambores, hay dos llaves que tienen el mismo significado, solo que se ven un poco diferentes. Uno como dos rasgos y el segundo como un rectángulo vertical.

Thank you very much for the comment! It is always interesting to hear comments from an experienced musician. Will you help me if you specify which variations you had in mind? Some styles of Latin American music can be played as 3-2 or 2-3. It depends a lot on the melody of the song. Therefore, I did not specify which Clave corresponds to the variations and limited myself only to the accompaniment of maracas. The rhythms shown in this video are mostly taken from textbooks, one of them was a book by Bob Evans.

Thank you for your response. I did not express myself clear enough. Sorry about that. I am not talking about the kind of variations you play as it is a personal taste, not even the direction of the clave (even if I think you should have done it but ok..) I just wonder how it is possible to show variations on bongo while there is no bongo in rumba. Do you confirm or do you have infos that would help me in my studies on the subject ? With respect for your work have a good day.

There are some complications with the rumba style. We all know the folk Cuban style of Rumba Guaguanco performed on conga drums or just vegetable crates. But there was also an adapted Rumba performed by orchestras in restaurants - a variety version of it. There is also a Spanish (Gypsy) Rumba - a song with guitars, Cajon and sometimes with Bongos. Cuba combines many traditions: African drum culture, Spanish song culture and others from all over the world. In fact, a rumba is a party of neighbors in the yard, when everyone jams, sings and plays on whatever is possible. I am of the opinion, probably like the author of the textbook Bob Evans, that any style of music can be performed on bongos. You can easily take them with you and when there are no Congas drums at hand, why not play bongos? Naturally, this is not a traditional option - it is an adaptation of the rhythm.@@conga59

@@Drums-and-Percussion-Grooves you’ re absolutely right and I know about all those specificities, that is why I thought that you were about to mention it in your video because beginners may believe that it is normal to play bongo in a rumba. As a Yoruba from Benin I have to take care of this part of my culture so I try to be as clear as possible to avoid misunderstandings etc… that said I thank you for your great work and still following you on KZfaq. With respect have a great day :-))
