The Conga and Bongo Drum in Jazz: Bongo Part 3/3

Companion video to the book "The Conga and Bongo Drum in Jazz" Mel Bay Publications by Trevor Salloum with Bobby Sanabria. In this video Candido plays an even eighth bongo pattern (Afro/Martillo) with a feel characteristic of the pre swing bongo era. He complements the swing rhythm played by Bobby Sanabria on drum kit.

I too am a finger percussionist. Love this! Thank you, thank you, thank you. I thought I was playing weird, but now I see.❤

[@ryanm.russellsmusicrecordi63]

This is a nice performance. Candido Camero did a great job playing slow tempo, mid tempo, and fast tempo.

[@fineartist7710]

He plays the bongo like a pianist, with his fingers....This gives me a dimensionala shift in thinking about how to play the bongos.

[@daveargall3454]

I love the ease and subtlety of the playing and the interaction between both players with a superb sound quality like the boom on the bass drum and nuances of the bongo

Cuba ! And all it’s instruments! Cuba has given the world and Latin America all these Amazing rhythm! Without the Cuban Son “ ! There wouldn’t be what they called The word Salsa ! Which in all truth it’s Cuban music, that was appropriated to market Cuban music! For those who don’t know the history

Seguí así viejito

[@lboy9889]

I feel like the bongos should adapt a swing feel in the martillos and improvisation to match the drum set.

[@conga59]

You re right Candido doesn’t play in the right jazz feeling….. to do so, he would have adapted the basic martillo to the cha-ba-da uselly played by the drummer on a ride cymbal. Here the drummer understand at once that Candido is wrong that is why he doesn’t play the “cha ba da” on his cymbal to not be irrespectful. You will find on UA-cam the right pattern to play to fit the drumset
