      @RhythmNotes its very complicated for me to keep two rhythms going on at the same time. Funny cause when I was a kid I was able to keep two rhythms going but at 61 its a challenge. Still, I'm determined to pick it up. I dedicated my life to art . Im a portrait painter, but I'll paint what ever the person wants you know what I mean. You have a marvellous skill I know that I could pick up a lot from you.

    Having watched many videos like this, I find it interesting how very tightly structured the percussion is.
    Speaking as a non-drumming musician who enjoys the 'exciting pandemonium' of Latin music, I thought everyone was just lamming away :D

    I’m curious about how you tune the Bemba in your timbales and what head you’re using. I like the deep tone of the head. Can you share some insight. Thank you.

    • @RhythmNotes
      @RhythmNotes  8 місяців тому

      The hembra is a double ply clear Remo emperor drumhead. I tune it low enough to get a thud with some resonance. I mostly did it this way because I could use it as a low tom sound with a percussion setup.

    • @segundo4370
      @segundo4370 8 місяців тому +1

      @@RhythmNotes I thought that might be the case. I like a low tuning all around and appreciate the deep hembra. Old school tuning like Manny Oquendo, Orestes Vilato and even Tito Puemte was always on the lower side. Today everyone likes to tune high.

    • @RhythmNotes
      @RhythmNotes  7 місяців тому

      I've noticed the high tuning, too. It also seems like timbaleros are playing with a lighter touch. Perhaps letting the sound support do the heavy lifting? It's something I'm considering.

    I'm just beginning to play timbales. I feel a little lost because I don't know how to read music and I never counted before. I was taught by just feeling it and playing it but I want to get better at this. Will I need to learn how to read and count in my head or can I still get far with just feeling it (the way we were taught)?

    • @RhythmNotes
      @RhythmNotes  4 роки тому

      Reading will help you get further faster. Initially, you will count and maybe struggle a little, but once you figure it out, you’re not counting all the time. In other words, when you’re a fluent reader, you’re mostly feeling and listening so you’re back to what you were doing only now you can learn new music more efficiently.
