Hey - Great lesson. It's nice to have a pro helping out our global drumming community.
I learned from your VHS tapes many years ago. Thank you for all you do and for preserving our culture. We are very proud of you! God Bless
This is incredible. I could watch him discuss this for hours
What an Absolutely pleasure to watch and learn from your videos!!
Wow. These videos are a great wealth of information. Not only did I learn many new techniques in playing the congas, but as a NY on2 dancer I can greatly appreciate the instruments in there entirety. I have always had questions as a dancers about the different congas, terminology, phrases, origins, etc. but in 4 short videos you have expressed so much more. Thank you so much Bobby Sanabria.
+Jon Pitre Glad you like it! Be sure to check out the bongo videos he made: ua-cam.com/video/jBZ1C1ihCIY/v-deo.html&lc=z12nxnvgazegcjjaa04cgvsqutbqjfbwsaw
Best conga videos I've seen online!! Thank you!!
Thank you for this great instruction. Story, technique, musicianship... Thank you Maestro
Man this is insanely awesome. I gotta catch this guy coming through and bring him on campus.
Great teachings.Lovely explanation of the history of the instrument.
This was so helpful, thank you very much
Really like how you explain the history of the congas and their names. I am an avid fan of the instrument and have been trying to learn how to play them, but raising children and working to maintain a family kept me occupied. I hope that with your videos i can get better each day with my drums. I have three just like the ones you have in your videos and love them to death. Hope i can follow your classes on you tube. Thanks for the fun......
Mr. Sanabria is the BEST ! BOOM

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have congas at the elementary school I work and now I can show them how to use them :D
at 1:57 you mentioned a Black Cuban. Please explain.
Cubans are by far the best Conga drum players in the world!!!😉
They were ,not anymore .They are lagging behind .
@@luisrosado6677who’s the best now?
Eso se llama tocar en clave !
I wish somebody could explain this clave thing that a classically trained musician would understand. I don't get it how the 6/8 clave actually aligns with the 4/4. The downbeat(open tone) resides on beat 4 in 4/4, but the clave hints that on the 2 side, there is a rest on beat 4. How does one come to the conclusion that the 1 open tone aligns with the 3 side, and the 2 open tones align with the 2 side? I don't see the connection apart from the tempo they're played.
Is he a leftie or is this how you should go about the whole thing?
Fernando Cardenas I studied with Javier Diaz and he said "the left lays down the beat and the right hand gives the flavor". So naturally a lot of conga stuff starts on the left.
