Como Tocar el Guiro!

- The güiro is a Latin American percussion instrument consisting of an open-ended, hollow gourd with parallel notches cut in one side. It is played by rubbing a stick or tines along the notches to produce a ratchet-like sound.
Latin Percussion Super Guiro with 2 Scrapers: amzn.to/1Uz6nbC
The güiro is commonly used in Cuban, Puerto Rican and other forms of Latin American music, and plays a key role in the typical rhythm section of important genres like son, trova and cumbia. Playing the güiro usually requires both long and short sounds, made by scraping up and down in long or short strokes.
The güiro, like the maracas, is often played by a singer. It is closely related to the Cuban guayo and the Dominican güira, which are made of metal. Other instruments similar to the güiro are the Colombian guacharaca, the Brazilian reco-reco, the quijada (cow jawbone) and the frottoir (washboard).

Excelente clase, más importante que saber tocar es saber explicar y enseñar, y tú aparte de que tocas fantásticamente lo explicas tan bien que no me ha hecho falta el traductor a pesar de que no hablo inglés.Gracias maestro.
Gracias Agustin, un abrazo musical lejano. Sigue practicando!

+Dance Papi Also!! My partner and I have just started to watch the Dance videos.....we're beginners and will start classes in 3 weeks but your excellent introductory lessons are giving us some much needed confidence! THANKS!
Your videos are awesome, I enjoy them a lot! Very high quality explanation, and a lot of fun to watch! Thank you Edgardo!
I Thank you for you using the word Gourd. You 'r right. Because Calebases are totaly different, they grows in a tree and gourds grows on the ground. kiss from Musicolo gourds producer, musician and guiro maker in france
Thank you sir! I was just thinking about starting to play the guiro but didnt like how most players only knew the cha cha rhythm. This is a great lesson.

yo soy la hija de esta cuenta pero esta clase me ayudo mucho. igracias! -Sarah Hernandez
In my missionary travels I gave a Guicha / Guiro to a wonderful Believer in India. He loved playing it in Bible Fellowships.
The Guiro can lift any soul!
Bien tocado y muy buena explicación!
Great teacher! Thank you
+Luke Conklin Thank you for tuning in!
Don’t underestimate the difficulty of play the guiro. I’ve been trying to get up to some of the speed he shows here and I can’t do it after a couple of weeks of really practicing. I can play cleanly to slower salsa but on songs that are much faster I fall apart.
great interesting lesson! THANKS!!!..SALUDOS FROM ITALY
Grazie per aver guardato! :-)
Genial, la mejor explicación que he visto!!! Me gustaría ver cómo se escribe esto y verlo escrito combinado con un patrón 2/3 y 3/2. Es lo mismo ya sé pero para ver las refeencias. Parece fácil pero yo sé que es un quilombo!!!
Excente, maestrooo. Que vaina tan bien explicada.... el video esta bien largo pero vi todito, me quedé pegaitooo. Muy buen instruccional.... Gracias
Gracias Pedro!
I wish there was version of these videos for children!:) This is great!
That's a great idea!
Los Tainos, 🇩🇴🇯🇲🇨🇺🇵🇷

great lesson!
nice , thanks for showing us how to play this instrument,
+roger nunez de nada!
Excelentes videos , de verdad te felicito por promover y apoyar nuestra musica Latina , soy aficionado a la percusion menor y de verdad que estos videos son muy agradables e instructivos , se que hacerlos en ingles hace que muchos gringos y otros que no hablan español tengan la oportunidad de conocer mas de nuestra cultura y musica hispana pero me gustaria mucho poder verlos si no es posible en Español al menos traducidos.
Un abrazo sincero desde Cali-Colombia donde la salsa se canta , se baila y se vive , les invito a conocer todos los artesanos que fabrican a mano muy buenos instrumentos de percusion menor.
+Julio Soto Mil gracias Julio por su mensaje! Si planeamos filmar todos los videos en español ya que tengamos un extenso catálogo y un estudio de musica donde filmar. Adelanta caminante y que viva la salsa!
Si no has venido a Cali durante la feria deberías hacerlo , el movimiento salsero y el encuentro de melómanos te espera.
+Julio Soto Suena bien!
Thank you for all your videos!
+Prendete a la Salsa! De nada! :-) Feel free to check out our Facebook page as well!

Edguardo, thank you for the lesson. Just got a Puerto 🇵🇷 Rican guiro and writing music for my next album and just needed basic guiro techniques just to get an idea. Actually, I need jibaro patterns. Do you have a video for that? Great lesson 👍
Great idea for a future video lesson!
Nice to learn with you

Thanks for watching!
Your videos are great
May I ask what song you are singing? It sounds amazing
thank youuuu!
muchisimas gracias! todo estuvo clarisimo!
Gracias Liz!
Fantastic lesson very thorough. I was wondering if sometime in the future you could demonstrate Bembe, Rumba and the Cascara pattern on Guiro? I've heard this on old Cuban recordings probably played by Gustavo Tamayo and would like to see this actually played on a video tutorial. As always thank you!
+David Easter Wonderful suggestions David! I'll approach Edgardo with these ideas to see if we can film these patterns. Please stay tuned!
+David Easter , yes indeed, the "Cáscara" pattern (derived from the Timbales, but also from similar patterns played accompanying Rumba,) is occasionally heard and played, specially in older recordings like albums of Johnny Pacheco (Dominican Flutist). It is used in "Conjunto" ensembles, using Conga and Bongó (without Timbales) and thus the Guiro covers a little bit of that roll. I didn't think of it, or I would have included that on the existing Guiro video. Thanks for checking in!
Hi good afternoon I'm very fairly new playing the guiro which I love love love thank you so mu h for posting your videos..... I had a question please I admire the shirt your wearing, where would I be able to purchase that shirt from please?
Thank you

Thanks!
So what's interesting is that they had a version of this instrument before the introduction of the Calabash Gourd (African Origin), one of humanities longest domesticated vegetable.
Thanks for the information and music. I live in the USA and would like to buy a guiro like yours. Do you know where I could find one? Thanks!
this is really nice.
We agree! ;-) Thanks for watching!
Tremendo maestro

Ok
En Venezuela este instrumento lo llamamos Güiro, la charrasca es otra cosa, o sea un instrumento de metal con que se toca la gaita Zuliana.
Nice
how do you play a puerto rican güiro?
¿cómo se toca un güiro puertorriqueño?
This instrument was used heavily for the soundtrack to the movie Chinatown.
Excellent film!
Great video! Where could I find that shirt?

Muchas gracias. Me paso in orchard beach, bronx nueva yor en el verano con mis bongos, cow bell, clave palos, y quiro.
I like this video. I think the gourd is warmer than the plastic, or is that just me?
Very cool video, where i can find the shekere video... Saludos de mexico!!! :) (es que no sé si hablan español o ingles jajaja)
+elias manuel Hi Elias. Thanks for watching. We don't have a Shekere video but we'll look into filming one!
añañay, he plays it well

I like your T-shirt. A donde puedo conseguir una?
estiloclothing.com/
Fui buena tocando el guiro- en mi Tierra Panamá 🇵🇦 es guiro.
Where do I get that shirt! I love your shirt! Can you tell me where I can purchase it! Thanks for the video!
Hi Ruben. Edgar got the shirt from estiloclothing.com/
Bueno
I have something similar that is shaped like a fish is that the same thing?!
Can anyone tell me what's the difference between salsa guiro and chacha guiro? If there is a difference.
Hi, The only difference is the speed, as the Guaracha can be much faster, but bear in mind that in the Guaracha (because the Guaracha is more related to Son music than Cha-Cha,) the Maracas may be a more appropriate accompanying instrument. Thanks for watching and for your comment.
Dance Papi you are confusing me when you said that the Guiro is a Latin instrument.
Then you also said that the Taino native people of Kuba had this instrument before the arrival of the europeans. The Latin people are they not Italians? Please educate me.
Nonetheless your presentation is flawless you are a versatile percussionist. Where can i get a Tee-shirt like the one you have on, I love that tee shirt, Adios mi hermano, estoy Lumumba en las islas de las Virgeness.
Thank you for the comments. The shirt is made by Estilo Clothing. Jerry Limon is the owner. His webstore is estiloclothing.com/
Latin-americans, we are mixed race from Spaniards, Indians, Africans. Spaniards also have Italian ancestors from Roman empire times.
Where can I get this güiro?
Buenos días Edgardo.
Tus vídeos los puedo encontrar en Español?
Saludos desde Colombia
Esperarmos grabar unnos videos en Español
me podria decir, donde puedo conseguir el raspador de guiro pero el mismo q esta usando en el video... yo tenia uno igual, pero me lo regalaron y se me rompio... y no se donde puedo conseguir otro igual..
Hola Kenji. El que usamos en el video fue un regalo. Se puede practicar con el siguente: Latin Percussion Super Guiro with 2 Scrapers: amzn.to/1Uz6nbC
In PR we call it guiro too, but its not open on top.
rhmedinas There is a hole on the side, right?
Where did you get that shirt!?!?!?

Puedo encontrar un vídeo del Güiro en el bolero?
Hola Julio, El Bolero se acompaña con Maracas, no Guiro... Gracias por tu comentario y apoyo a mis videos. Edgardo.
