Conga Drums: Basic Songo Rhythms!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Songo is a genre of popular Cuban music, created by the group Los Van Van in the early 1970s. Songo incorporated rhythmic elements from folkloric rumba into popular dance music, and was a significant departure from the son montuno/mambo-based structure which had dominated popular music in Cuba since the 1940s. Blas Egües was the first drummer in Los Van Van, but it was the band's second drummer, Jose Luis Quintana "Changuito", who developed songo into the world-wide phenomenon it is today.

Songo is the most famous of the post-Revolution Cuban rhythms, beginning with the mozambique, which drew from the deep well of Afro-Cuban folkloric rhythms (mainly rumba). During the 1970s, many Cuban bands created their own original rhythms: Los Van Van invented songo; Orquesta Ritmo Oriental-nueva onda; Orquesta Tipica Juventud-bata cinco, and Orquesta Revé named their invention-changüí, after the "funky," folkloric proto-son music of the 19th century. Songo is a precursor of present-day timba.
Edgardo Cambon teaches the basic songo rhythms in this video lesson.

Thanks that’s a bunch Of lessons piled into one video
Raul YULO Cardenas...first Conga player with Los,Van Van really developed the Songo beat with Changuito. His GOLPES are incredible. Good thing you mentioned him.
Thanks for your comment and for checking the video, thanks ALSO for the clarification on Yulo's (RIP) full name... When I was tacking classes with Changuito he simply referred to him by his nickname... Manolito (also RIP) was with Van Van then. Gracias!

You are great !! Thank you so much for the awesome lessons, each time. Bravo.
One request, please don't put plants on the drum behind you :)
Gilad, It's a plastic (fake) plant over a basket, the basket over an old synthetic head , but I can see that that may bother some... Point well taken. Thanks for the comment brother. Peace. Be safe!
Great video maestro Edgardo. What an honor having learned from you today and JAC. Is there a video on your channel for the que pasa you showed us today. Gracias, much love.
Cuando va hacer un video en espeńol es luis de Venezuela
Can someone please write the names of those two bands that Edgardo mentions at the end. I can't catch the names. Thanks a lot 👍
Veo que tienes parches sintéticos en los tambores que me parece que, antes tenías raw heads.
Hello, what do you tune you drums to? There are so many variations of tuning. thanks
Edgardo, el segundo Songo se me parece a una Bomba, puede ser?gracias
You can skip at least the first three minutes. Rhythms start about 3.30.
Hey brother , i have a question plz . Its possible to play on 3 congas with this size (11 , 11.34 , 11.34 ) ??? One quinto end two congas Meinl
Hi Marwane, Yes, it is possible to play with a Quinto and Two Congas.But obviously you have to make sure that your tuning (in any of the 3) is not too low that one of your lower Congas (using it as a Tumba) ends up too low)... Good luck my friend, and please "like and subscribe" . Thanks!
