Glad you enjoyed it! Working on a new video about Songo currently! As for my sources for this particular video, there’s not much out there so I had to hunt down every piece of information from a mix of lengthy academic papers, history books and music documentaries. Learned a lot in the process!
Thank you for producing this video document. You were clear in your explanation of the technical aspects of the folkloric music and touched on the Northern Spanish influence with detail not found in other historical breakdowns of the music of Cuba on this platform. I'm look forward to your video on the genesis of the Cha Cha Cha. Request: If at all possible, please try to make a video on the history of the Danzon. There's a lot to cover there and many have cited 1878 as the "birth" of said musical form, but earlier renditions did exist. Thank you y saludos! 🙏🏼
Hi!👋🏻 Thanks for your generous comment! The Danzón is definitely one of my planned videos so you can expect it in a near future. I am covering all early genres of Cuban music precisely because I have never found well rounded sources.
@MusicNerd95 Yes, agreed. One benefit people can learn from you are the technical aspects of the music itself. Many scholars or history retellers write and convey information or narratives with no musical basis. They're just making declarations or inferring theories. Meanwhile the music is right there to dissect. But it is ignored. Again, thank you for being a bright light in these dark caverns of youtube.
@@richieblondet2310 Yes, my goal is to put forward information that is comprehensive yet accessible. It’s a tricky balance to maneuver while trying to have a serious research behind every video to back up all facts in a historically and musically accurate way. Thanks for your encouragement and excitement about these topics!
@@MusicNerd95 All the archival materials you used are in great shape, much better picture/video quality than elsewhere I've seen them (e.g. A. Zayas, Clave y Guaguanco, Los Hoyos). Very nice.
@jazzleebert2 I’m glad it made a difference! I did put a lot of time into finding the best footage possible. In most cases I used davinci resolve to improve image quality to the best of my ability. I appreciate you pointing this out!😊
Thank you so much for this! I'd love to know some of the film footage of the Clave de Guaguanco came from, and I wish I could hear more of the audio to them.
Thanks for watching! I have a new video coming out this week about the three rumba variants: yambú, columbia, and guanguancó. Be on the look out for it. You will like it!😊
Thank you for a great video. I'm currently writing a research essay for university about Cuban music. Do you think you could provide me with the sources for this video? Thanks!
Sure thing! In this link you can find most of the sources I used. rmbodenheimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bodenheimer_corosdeclave.pdf I also recommend these two: 5A) Sublette, Ned (2004). "Rumba". Cuba and Its Music: From the First Drums to the Mambo. Chicago, IL: Chicago Review Press. pp. 257-272. (5B) Urfé, Odilio (1977). "Presencia africana en la música y la danza cubanas". In Moreno Fraginals, Manuel (ed.). África en América Latina (in Spanish). Some are hard to run into unless you have the physical book so best of look with you paper, and thanks for watching my video!😊❤️🇨🇺
Hola @PalenqueRecords En el vídeo nunca se dice que las claves como instrumento musical vienen de España, ya que eso sería absurdo. Simplemente, se establece una relación entre el apellido del músico y compositor catalán Josep Anselm Clavé, y el nombre que recibieron los coros de claves (como conjunto musical), tanto en España como en Cuba. Esta conexión, por cierto, no es de mi autoría, si no de multiples renombrados escolares que estudiaron la musica cubana por décadas. Te adjunto un fragmento de un ensayo académico sobre el tema, pare que te eduques en esto ya que te interesa tanto. Te invito a que vuelvas a escuchar esa parte del video, ya que la has interpretado mal. Quizás sería prudente escuchar con atención antes de insultar el trabajo de tanta gente. ;) rmbodenheimer.files.wordpress.com/2014/05/bodenheimer_corosdeclave.pdf
The lie is that you're claiming she said that. Watch again and pay attention this time. The *instrument* claves are not the focus here, but the Coros de Clave, the vocal ensembles. She doesn't discuss where the instrument comes from at all.

El caso de Cuba fue único, una isla tan pequeña con tantos géneros musicales bailables. La fusión afrohispana fue magnífica.
Arte cubano, muy creativo y superior..miles de gracias!!!
