- How to play Bongos. Kalani shows you how to play Bongo Tones. These are the basic bongo tones that every beginner should learn. The three techniques in this lesson include: The Edge Tone, The Open Tone, and the Muted edge Tone. You can use the three bongo tones to play the Martillo Pattern, a common rhythm played on the bongos. The professional bongos in the video weigh 5.1 kg or 11.2 lbs.

Hey Amigo, I’m a drummer, errr a Very old drummer (71) and needless to say I’ve lost more than I’ve retained. I’ve always been a Huge fan of Latin music and the beats. I recently purchased a set of medium ranged bongos, Latin Percussion and I love ‘em. I can’t tell you how informative your videos have been for me. You do a masterful job in relating the instrument in breaking down the step by step instructions. Thank you for so much for your time and effort. Take Care.....
Thank you!
I hope u still playing bongos! I 65 n just started. How u playin
Not latin music its African music, you cant call it Latin if the same music predates it somewhere else.

Hallo sir good evening
I love to play bongos
Now my age is 60.
You may laugh. But I
Love to play in the
Church. Thanks for
Teaching so nicely.
I will try learn from you.
God bless
Why do you think anyone would laugh? 60 is "NOT" old if that is what you are referring to... and ... it has nothing to do with loving to produce beautiful music, art, whatever. Enjoy your journey.
You go man! Youre never too old!
You make me smile.. I just finished 73 and newly started to bongos. Don't feel bad with yourself. We have so many things more to learn sir.
i gotsome bongos for chrismas and i didnt know what to do with them but you showed me how to play them and now i am exited to learn more. thank you
Thanks for these easy to follow videos. As a percussionist, I’ve never received any training on how to obtain correct tones. This helps immensely.
Great job thank you for this tutorial 👍
Amazing channel, THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for all of the teaching I dreamed to be able to play the bongos
Fantastic, thank you!

Great work kalani, keep it up :)

Thanks for your lesson~
Thank you!
Thanks!
My first bash on my bongos today, following along with this video.
Very good.
Will add them to the tracks I'm recording.
Even if i play bongos for years, I watched this vid, always things to learn.
Thank to you I bought a ATV Aframe, amazing instrument.
This channel makes great work, thanks ;)
super super masterji
very inspirational lesson, thank you from Chiang Mai....
I'm learning allot Thankyou I've been playing for a couple years but just having fun now I'm ready to learn the proper way .... Trying to
I watched like the first 10 seconds and the before continuing on with the video, I watched you’re video on how to properly hold the bongos between your legs - which was surprisingly easy even though I’m someone with only skin and bone (well, I guess I have most of my fat and muscle in my legs, everywhere else has nothing lol) - and I had already known that you were supposed to hit it on the edge with your fingertips, so then once I had my bongos in position, I was already doing it pretty well, and it came naturally! I was even doing the percussive stroke all on my own! Granted, I do have musical experience, but I own or play any other percussive instruments - besides piano. But I think that because of my musical experience, I had learned quite a few things just through osmosis alone, and it seems like my ability to play the bongos showed that.
None of that meant that this videos wasn’t any help to me! I learned the names of the bongos; a basic rhythm; and, despite already realizing through experimentation (and from prior knowledge) that you could put you’re finger in the middle of the drum to mute it or produce a higher pitch, I still didn’t think about the different _ways_ to mute it, like the difference between putting your finger _pads_ on the drum, and putting your finger _tips_ on the drum. This video was really helpful, because even when you were saying some things that I already knew without them being said, it was still helpful to have those things actually stated!
Didn’t mean for this to be so long! I was just planning to say that I was already doing a lot of things naturally, but it then became a review, haha!
TL;DR
Thanks for the great video! This video really helped, and I learned quite a bit despite having prior musical knowledge - just not much with the bongos! You’ve earned yourself a subscriber! ❤️
Although, I’m not sure how hard it is to earn me as a subscriber, because I subscribe to all sorts of channels, and will subscribe pretty quickly.
However, that doesn’t mean that I set a low bar, it just means that there are lots of channels out there that are able to make good, quality that appeals to me! And you’re one of them, which still something to be proud of! 😄
I write long comments all the time, but I’m _PRETTY SURE_ this one takes the cake!
However, I don’t think it’s my longest comment in terms of the amount of time spent typing it.
Anyways, I really need to stop myself! Keep up the good work man! 👍
Ok, now it’s finally the end! No more writing! I’m done!
Thank you so much.
Excellent bro
Grt ... This is my childhood dream to play .. drum 👍

Have ever been listened to KENDANG Dangdut from Indonesia?
very interesting👍
Hello from the Philippines. Thank you for all the videos you share. I recently purchased a Tycoon Ritmo Series Bongo. Your tutorials has helped me alot with the basics. I want to ask if you can share a video on how to play Bongos with House music. I am a DJ and Producer mainly Afro House. Thank you very much.
I’ve just started playing around with bongos in my 50’s. I have played various instruments (guitar my main instrument since my early teens). Always wanted to try bongos. I found it interesting that striking closer to the edge on the large drum was suggested as an “unsatisfying” tone; I quite like the sound created-thinner maybe but seems more resonant, sharp and ringing. Maybe a matter of taste? Coming from guitar there is an unlimited variation in style and tone; I imagine bongos/percussion players have some differences in their tonal preferences too though.
Nice sir

This is such an awesome bongo drumming tutorial right here man I love it.😃👍
Thanks
@@WORLDDRUMCLUB You're very welcome. Much love.❤️

I'm this close to buying Bongo, or Bongó as we say in the business.
incredible bongo band ...apache....tutorial Pleaaaasssseeeeeee
you can stand up on the bongos😂😂 that killed me bruh idk why😂 i’m lk blitzed so that might be helpin😂😂😂🤟🏾
As a local professional conga bongo drummer this video is great for the beginning bongo drummer & you in the past helped my bongo skills to being the professional bongo drummer that I am today!!! Plus the LP Aspire bongos sound better than what you are using just heads up! These bongos you are using aren't bad just more vintage sounding bongos.
shut up
Hello thank you for the very informative lessons. I got a new set of low end Tycoon bongos and I am a total beginner. I tried tuning the drums, the hembre still sounds dull and doesn't "ring" in the middle of the drums. Is that ok? If i tighten more i am afraid i might tear the skin. Any advice? Thanks a million in advance.
Just do it
I'm left handed and a complete beginner. I'm assuming I mirror image what you have shown us unless you can show the same thing left handed?
Hey🎉
Your content is excellent. Thank you. Why do the bongos have to face away when you play them?
Thank you!
Why should the bongos face away when you play them?
In order to line up the heads with the hands and create an ergonomic playing angle.
What type of drumheads do I need to make them sound like yours? Mine came with the default one and they dont sound right 😭
thanks where to buy these Bongo you have ? :)
will i run into any problems if the right drum is on my left side?
Can it stay on his plastic "legs" on a table, or it will weaken its tension?
I've got a question, where on the bongo do u tune it?
Heavy left hand, due to parkinsons...getting there
Is it on the top or the bottom
For the edge tone: I keep hitting the bearing edge. I’m not supposed to do that right?
How I m got all tutorial

I need help tuning my bongos. They are new and I can't find anyone to tune them for me during this time. Do you have a tuning tutorial for this. 😪
Kalani explains the basics of bongo tuning here czcams.com/video/zTTCYvTz_NU/video.html and here czcams.com/video/G1LBBFlFTg0/video.html and here czcams.com/video/98-RjnxL85Q/video.html and here czcams.com/video/i5vcdQyK2Bw/video.html.
We try to tune or own with a wrench. Hit the drum and turn wrench and listen
El macho y la hembre.
