I love latin rhythms

[@arnieg65]

Really enjoyed this one, very close to the Puertorrican "Guaguancó". Greetings to my old teacher. Arnold

[@RichieZellon]

Thanks Arnold, great to hear from you! Un abrazo!

Gracias, Richie!!

[@bluegiraffe7858]

So fun to play and interesting use of octaves (compared to the more usual octave solo stuff). Thank you!

[@RichieZellon]

Glad you enjoyed it!

hi Richie, do you have tutorial video how the guitarist must play when there is piano montuno in a band? or maybe how to split the portion of those two instrument to play along in cuban musics like salsa, chachacha, mambo, etc..
thanks before 🙏🏼

[@RichieZellon]

I would love to but that's a tall order and unfortunately an advanced and unpopular topic. Guitar and piano in a montuno setting are very rare. I suggest laying out or possibly playing clave using diads to avoid getting in the way. I touched on this in my previous Afro-Cuban guitar 101 lesson.

thanks Richie for your answer, appreciate it 🙏🏼

You are the very first case I have seen emulate the tres concepts on guitar and sound like tres not a guitar!

[@RichieZellon]

Thanks, that's quite a compliment!

Candela chico!
