  • Learn how to play the basic tumbao rhythm in this video lesson. It is a great Afro-Cuban pattern to practice after you have learned the basic sounds of the conga drum as shown in the previous online class.
    Latin Percussion LP City Wood Congas 10" & 11" Set: amzn.to/1Uz3kQK
    The tumbao rhythm, or marcha, was traditionally played on only one before various artists started incorporating other congas. From son, guaracha, cha cha cha, mambo to guajira, the tumbao is an important base for various music styles. Visit dancepapi.com for more free conga tutorials.

    I hope you have the opportunity to look at this comment because I want to tell you that you are one of the best conga teachers I have found. Your instructions are clear and, for me, counting out the rhythm really helps. I have also learned a lot of variations of the tumbao both from your instruction and just by watching you play. I would say my playing has improved a lot by watching you and I hope you have the chance to make more videos. Thanks for such great instruction

  •  2 года назад +5

    I’ve come back to this video after a few years practice - I wonder how many others have slowed down that magic 40 seconds of guaracha tempo rhythm (1:45 - 2:25) to learn those cool variations that Edgardo plays - really worth doing, IMHO😀. Thanks again maestro!🙏🎶🪘🪘🪘

Thanks for your nice comment. Until next. Keep the good drumming!

    He visto muuuchos tutoriales, pero la gran mayoria de ellos: son tediosos y fastidiosos, o el percusionista solo quiere mostrar sus habilidades, tocando rapido, y haciendo ejecuciones avanzadas.
    Tus videos son lo mejor que he visto. Explicas de manera facil, amena, y haces comentarios utiles sobre la correcta ejecución del instrumento. Yo soy un percusionista amateur, que acaba de cumplir 61 (gracias a Dios) y he tocado en publico algunas veces. Tu 1er. video sobre los diferentes golpes, para lograr diferentes sonidos y matices, es muy bueno Edgardo, te felicito, y agradezco tu esfuerzo por poner buena información y sin costo en la web.
