  • When you play bongo in Bachata, you can make a lot of variations. In this lesson I'll show you step by step some examples. Enjoy it!

    I just love your tutorials. I recommend your videos to all of our batucada band members alas a way to make them think about rhythm and percussion techniques. It makes it easier for them to learn when our mestre teaches during practice sessions. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience.

    I love your smooth style it has really shaped my playing as I am sort of a beginner. I have a question, I would love for you to answer. How exactly do you hit the flem? The middle finger hits first, followed by the pointing finger? But how are you able to leave such a gap between the two hits when you are playing slow tempo? Thanks so much mr. Miranda!

      I can hear the bongo and have logic Pro X to make my arrangements. It has the bongo plus other instruments in the audio for each but I did not know how to enter the notes. I can hear the beats and have made good progress since watching you play and the scoring that you give. For my needs, this is perfect. Thank you again. Reuben

    I don't know about other bongo beginners but for me I started off regarding it all as a kind of mathematics and keeping a count of the beats. Then after a while the numbers began to turn into sound and instead of thinking 1-2-3-4 ... 5-6 it became
    ba-ba-ba-ba... du-du. Has anyone else seen it this way or am I mad?
