In this case the Song selected is "What´s going on", by Marvin Gaye.
The rhythm of the song is Funk.

Cool, but what do you think about switching the quinto and conga positions to quinto( my right) and conga( my left)? I'm right handed and think in terms of the piano which is a percussion instrument
Hi!. It´s really good a question!.
I assume your a pianist!, correct me if I´m wrong.
Let me tell you this first, the disposition Conga in your left and Tumbadora in your right -let called "Tumbadora in the Right", to make it simple- is the most used one and matches the Bongo disposition.
So, that makes easier to play the same rhythms in both drums.
According to what I know It´s also the traditional disposition. And yes, it´s a right handed disposition.
Also, it matches the disposition of drumset for right handed players.
The disposition you suggest in latin percussion you can find it in the Timbales, in which you have the "Macho", high drum, to your right and the "hembra", low drum, to your left -let´s call it "Tumbadora in the left".
Being all that said, let me tell you that I began learning to play congas with the disposition you suggest, "Tumbadora in the left"
That was accidental, I assume that my teacher was left handed, but I dind´t pay attention to that.
However It wasn´t a problem for me at that time beacuse UA-cam didn´t existed and Learning Videos were rare. I´m talking about 25/30 years ago. So I learn a lot of rhythms with that conga disposition.
However, when I start teaching, already in the "UA-cam Era", I realized that several students found hard to play naturally with that disposition,
The main reason is that the material with which they start learning was played using the "Tumbadora on the right" disposition. So swaping to a new disposition was pretty dificult to them.
Faced with that, I accepted the challenge to adapt my playing and all my teaching material I use for my online classes to that disposition, "Tumbadora in the right".
It was a pretty intense training that really paid off. The final result is that now I´m able to adapt and play in any conga set up.
If you ask me, I prefer the disposition you suggest beacause both hands work the same, but as a teacher I have to say that you have to train your hand technique to work in any set up, what i mean you have to be able to lead from your right hand and from your left.
Also, I played piano, as a percussionist obviously and mostly percussive rhythms, and I take advantage of my "tumbadora on the left" training and it works great for me.
Sorry for the long anserw and I hope I anserwed your question.
Keep me posted!
@@TocarPercusionWebEng Hello and Thank you! Okay, I'm not really a pianist but I tried to learn piano and have played and still play on various keyboards ( mainly electric such as synthesizer's) besides drum machines which makes me use my fingers more even while playing conga's. I'm no expert or pro by any chance but I can hold it down good enough 😁. And your answer was not too long at all ( it was like you were actually talking to me!) and this gave me new inspiration, oh yeah I've heard that the percussionist 'Big Black' and the late 'Mtume' play in the " right handed disposition" so I wasn't feeling all that bad because some people would say I was wrong, even my first ( and last) conga drum "personal teacher/ trainer"would say that, again thanks a lot for your insight, I love the channel! Peace!
HI!, great then!. Happy to hear that I helped you and that you like the drum. Just keep playing the congas and try different stuff, at the end you´re going to find your own way and sound!
