Beginner Series Abanico on Timbales
Another video for the beginner series on Timbales. The Abanico is a basic intro to many Son Montunos ( popular Cuban music) and Salsa tunes. It can be used after a break in the tune too. You’ll also be able to fit it into your solos (5 stroke and 7 stroke rolls). Well enjoy practicing it and using it in your music. Here are some books that will help you with your drum rudiments.

Habla mucho y no arranca
Gracias Master, muy didáctico. Saludos desde Perú!!
Super thsnks❤
Don’t talk to much about the guiro🤬🤬🤬
Looking forward to more Bongo lessons
Thank you for my good start to The Bongo With the Martillo
I am just baby stepping into the habanera. My goal is to master the martillo. Thank you for this.
Brilliant that’s great I get my Bongo at Easter & will try this first
Hey, this was a great lesson for a beginner looking to move beyond the classic Martillo -- thanks! But it looks like you didn't get to do the additional lessons on Bongo improv you said were coming. I, and I'm sure many others, would really appreciate those lessons if you could find time to do them!
Sorry I haven’t made videos in a while but I was busy relocating to another. In the process of finishing my studio and when done more videos will be coming. Thanks for watching 👍🏼
What’s the intro song called?
No name just a loop I used and put the percussion in
Mira pero explica esto en español si tu eres puertorriqueño
con oido definido e instinto cae solo
Best breakdown I’ve seen thus far, thank you
I play left-handed, but I live in Japan and one of my English students wanted to learn bongos. So I had to teach myself to play righthanded by watching your videos lol thanks bro, now my lessons with him are getting easier. His first song assignment is "Panos de llagrimas" by Sonora Poncena. He loves it! Now he is listening to old school Orquesta De La Luz too.
Thank you hermano. I’m glad it helped and I’m reaching brothers all the way out to Japón!!
Thanks for this. It would really help if, at the beginning or the end, you could demonstrate what we're working toward -- i.e., playing the exercises at full speed, even with accents and flourishes. That way we'll know what we're trying to achieve.
Wonderfully informative, thank you.
Good introduction lesson even for those with no music and percussion experience.Very basic introduction to salsa .
And Dominicans….
In the DR we play the Guira which is different and has more of a ssshhhhh sound
Got to love a guy with OLD SCHOOL LP DRUMS, BLESS YOU AMIGO.
Great video thanks we need to practice it slow but we also need to hear how it sounds fast
Thanks for listening and learning from my vids. I will do another one fast when I get settled in my new studio. It’s still a work in progress as I have moved from my previous studio. Thanks again and please subscribe to the channel.
You explain it so easy, thanks
Too much talk not enough lesson…..
Good lesson. Beautiful Tumbadoras.
This was such a helpful breakdown, exactly what I was looking for. I have a clave app with all of these but didn’t understand how they were related. Thanks so much for the great teaching.
You Rock
Amazing!!!!
too much talk ... good talk ... but a bit too much ... get to the point straight away
Where are you giving your lesson at
I am giving lessons on line from NY. Please email me at percussionworks101@gmail.com for more info. Gracias hermano!
Yeah Can you tell me the model of the mambo bell and the cha-cha bell are you using on the TIMBALES..THANKS
I’m not 100 percent sure of which model because if had so many throughout the years but those are definitely LP bells. They look like the old Salsa models that they had years ago. Thanks for watching hermano. Que el Señor le bendiga.
Love the Timbales! Always wanted to learn how to play the instrument. I am 56yrs old and would enjoy learning! Always enjoyed hearing Tito Puente play.
Thank your for this, I haven’t checked this out previously because I didn’t have a third drum. I finally have one. My question is, can I do this with a quinto? I ask because I believe your isn’t
Cachi cachi
Thank you!!!
Do you think I can play timbales at 54. Some tones would do good
I have two Black LP Patatoes with Manito skins are those Patatoes
Thank you brother!!!!
Thank you bro!!
Perfectly explained. Thank you!
good tutorial, thank you sir!
Love it great stuff my entire family plays thank you for the video 💯🙏
This is amazing!! My family in PR can jam using percussion. Now I can join in!! Thank you!
With the Crazy Eddie canvas in the background!!!!!.. BAD INC... TIA..
Great Video! Thanks for posting. I’ve been studying as a percussionist for 30 years and 20 of those years as a conguero. This technique is ALWAYS in my practice regimen. Love to modulate this phrase continuously between 3s, 4s, 6s, etc. (depending on the tempo) placing the attacks in different spaces around the clave. The possibilities are endless! Anyway, Look forward to checking out your future tutorials. Can tell just by the way you place your hands on the drum that you’ve really dug into his style.
Thank you brother and yes you can tell that Tata is one of my biggest influences if not my biggest.
Thanks for the lesson! Very easy to understand and follow. You have a nice relaxed style of teaching, personable. More uploads, please. Subscribed! Those drums sound nice, are they, original models? And are those manito skins on them? They sound great!
Thank you much! Yeah those are original model drums 28 inch tall with Manito heads.
@@mikec.3958 I have just an original model conga, I'm after a quinto. I'll need to get some manito heads on them when I manage to source a quinto. Thanks for the reply.
You are an effective teacher.
Some very good points made here. I never realized that the first open comes after the first beat of the bar! I've now got just that little bit more understanding of this great rhythm
Buena clase bro
Hermano. Where can I find those maracas you own? The flat top is key to that crisp beautiful sound they produce when the beads hit it. Love it!!!
