Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (this page sells the book only - audio files are a separate downloadable purchase - the book also contains a link to a smaller free download of audio files)Beyond Salsa Bass is the companion series to Beyond Salsa Piano, launched in 2009 and now spanning 12 volumes. As of 2013, three bass volumes have been released: Volumes 6 and 7 on Alain Pérez, and this book, Volume 1: For Beginners. Included are bass tumbaos for each of the piano tumbaos (aka, montunos) in Beyond Salsa Piano, Vol. 1, but the bass volume is more than twice as long and contains many additional bass tumbaos and other exercises. The book begins by categorizing the 16 most common Latin bass tumbaos by their rhythms and then proceeds to tell the history of Latin music from a bassist's perspective, with notation for bass tumbaos from each era covered: changüí, rumba, son, danzón, big band and son montuno (a very detailed study of Arsenio Rodríguez). Audio files are not included with the book. Available online are both a smaller free audio download and an extensive paid audio download.

Book Synopsis Beyond Salsa Percussion-The Cuban Timba Revolution by : Kevin Moore
Download or read book Beyond Salsa Percussion-The Cuban Timba Revolution written by Kevin Moore and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-11-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an encyclopedic selection of all the basic rhythm parts used on timbales and drums in Latin music (salsa, timba, Afro-Cuban folkloric rhythms, rumba, danzón, chachachá et al). The central premise is for the student to master each rhythm by singing and tapping before attempting to play it on an instrument, so as to avoid bad habits of technique during the critical period when the rhythm is being memorized and internalized.To accommodate as many learning styles as possible, each rhythm is presented in eight ways: two types of standard notation, two types of graphic or "box" notation, full speed audio, slow motion audio, and two speeds using a special "task-by-task" learning method where the rhythm is learned one stroke at a time against a steady rhythmic accompaniment.Each rhythm is first presented as a single part in its historical context and then in the combinations of two and three parts at once that a percussionist would be expected to play in various group situations.One group of audio files (107 tracks) is available as a free online download, with the link provided in the book. The remainder (the more advanced files) are available as a separate downloadable product.The book will also be useful for those who can already play drums and timbales but need to quickly learn the necessary rhythms for salsa and timba, but for true beginners, our strategy is to learn to sing and tap all of the basic rhythms before taking your first lesson and there's a very important reason for doing it this way: As with golf or tennis lessons, learning to play a musical instrument is about physical movements, dexterity, timing, coordination and body language - the types of things that are easier to demonstrate than to explain and are easier to master when your brain stays calmly out of the way as your body goes through the learning process. If your brain is struggling to learn what to play, it interferes with your body's natural ability to learn how to play. To put it another way, if you're concentrating on mastering the pattern of a new rhythm, you won't be able to give 100% of your effort to tone production, posture, hand position, and feeling the groove, and you're likely to develop "bad habits" that are hard to unlearn later. But if you've already learned to sing, clap and tap the rhythms before you take your first lesson on drums or timbales, you'll be much more likely to succeed, and - just as important - you'll be much more likely to enjoy the process.
Download or read book Beyond Salsa Bass written by Kevin Moore and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-05-31 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doubling as a history and music appreciation course, each volume of the Beyond Salsa Bass series is significantly longer than the corresponding volume of Beyond Salsa Piano. At 440 pages, Beyond Salsa Bass Vol. 3 is by far the longest of the 26 Beyond Salsa books and the first to extensively cover New York and Puerto Rican salsa and pre-salsa as well as Latin jazz. Its audio product (separate purchase) has 616 tracks (a generous selection of 60 free audio tracks is also available by download). The book includes a bass tumbao for every piano tumbao in each of Volumes 3 and 4 of the Beyond Salsa Piano series, but it also includes hundreds of bass tumbaos from and historical analyses of areas of Latin music not covered in the piano series: Puerto Rico, New York, Latin Jazz, the Cuban descargas and additional aspects of the Cuban music of 1959-1989, i.e., from the Cuban Revolution to the Fall of the Berlin Wall. In addition to exercises in music notation, the bass series delves far more deeply into history and the biographies and discographies of individual artists than either the piano or percussion series. The bass series could be thought of as a thorough general history of Latin popular music, told from the perspective of the bass student.

Book Synopsis The Tomás Cruz conga method by : Tomás Cruz
Download or read book The Tomás Cruz conga method written by Tomás Cruz and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume III is the first educational product to tackle the complex subject of Timba, the new musical genre which has been played in Cuba since 1989. Timba represents a quantum leap for all the instruments of the rhythm section and especially the congas. The recordings of Toms Cruz are considered the most advanced examples of Timba conga-playing and so fascinated the three coauthors that they sought out Toms Cruz and spent a year and a half studying his style and meticulously documenting it before even considering the idea of publishing it. After many hundreds of hours of passionate research, this "labor of love" eventually reached fruition as Volume III. Volumes II & I were then written to trace the roots of the style and to understand the path Toms took to arrive at his phenomenal level of technical mastery and rhythmic creativity. Much more than a collection of patterns or exercises, Volume III analyzes Timba arrangements from beginning to end, explaining the role of the congas in each section, the relationship to the "clave," and Tomasito's creative process, including an exercise which teaches the reader to invent his own Timba conga parts. It was the intricacies of the material of Volume III which inspired the creation of the Step by Step DVD Method, which enables the reader to learn these exciting new rhythms in a fraction of the time it would take working with only written music and audio recordings.
Book Synopsis Salsa Consciente by : Andrés Espinoza Agurto
Download or read book Salsa Consciente written by Andrés Espinoza Agurto and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the significations and developments of the Salsa consciente movement, a Latino musico-poetic and political discourse that exploded in the 1970s but then dwindled in momentum into the early 1990s. This movement is largely linked to the development of Nuyolatino popular music brought about in part by the mass Latino migration to New York City beginning in the 1950s and the subsequent social movements that were tied to the shifting political landscapes. Defined by its lyrical content alongside specific sonic markers and political and social issues facing U.S. Latinos and Latin Americans, Salsa consciente evokes the overarching cultural-nationalist idea of Latinidad (Latin-ness). Through the analysis of over 120 different Salsa songs from lyrical and musical perspectives that span a period of over sixty years, the author makes the argument that the urban Latino identity expressed in Salsa consciente was constructed largely from diasporic, deterritorialized, and at times imagined cultural memory, and furthermore proposes that the Latino/Latin American identity is in part based on African and Indigenous experience, especially as it relates to Spanish colonialism. A unique study on the intersection of Salsa and Latino and Latin American identity, this volume will be especially interesting to scholars of ethnic studies and musicology alike.

Book Synopsis Michael Dweck: Habana Libre by : Michael Dweck
Download or read book Michael Dweck: Habana Libre written by Michael Dweck and published by Grafiche Damiani. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Habana Libre is a stunning contemporary exploration of the privileged class in a classless society: a secret life within Cuba. Michael Dweck's photographs are exhilarating, sensual and provocative, with a sexy and hypnotic visual rhythm. This is a face of Cuba never before photographed, never reported in Western media and never acknowledged openly within Cuba itself. It is a socially connected world of glamorous models and keenly observant artists, filmmakers, musicians and writers captured in an elaborate dance of survival and success. Here too are surprising interviews with sons of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara as well as many others who define the creative culture of Cuba and give it texture and substance. Habana Libre is not a media-fabricated Cuban postcard of crumbling mansions or old American cars, but a revealing and contemporary work by a visual artist adept at capturing the quiet gesture, the sensuous eye and the proud and provocative pose of that most romantic of contradictions: Cuba. The photographs of Michael Dweck (born 1957) were first exhibited at Sotheby's, New York, in 2003, in the auction house's first solo exhibition for a living photographer. Dweck's first major photographic work, The End: Montauk, N.Y., published in 2004, blended documentary and staged photography to produce a compelling portrait of a beach community that exists as much in the realm of memory and desire as in the real world. His acclaimed 2008 volume Mermaids explored the female nude refracted in water. Dweck's work has become part of important international art collections and has been shown in major solo gallery exhibitions around the world.
Book Synopsis Timba: The Sound of the Cuban Crisis by : Vincenzo Perna
Download or read book Timba: The Sound of the Cuban Crisis written by Vincenzo Perna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuban music is recognized unanimously as a major historical force behind Latin American popular music, and as an important player in the development of US popular music and jazz. However, the music produced on the island after the Revolution in 1959 has been largely overlooked and overshadowed by the Buena Vista Social Club phenomenon. The Revolution created the conditions for the birth of a type of highly sophisticated popular music, which has grown relatively free from market pressures. These conditions premised the new importance attained by Afro-Cuban dance music during the 1990s, when the island entered a period of deep economic and social crisis that has shaken Revolutionary institutions from their foundations. Vincenzo Perna investigates the role of black popular music in post-Revolutionary Cuba, and in the 1990s in particular. The emergence of timba is analysed as a distinctively new style of Afro-Cuban dance music. The controversial role of Afro-Cuban working class culture is highlighted, showing how this has resisted co-optation into a unified, pacified vision of national culture, and built musical bridges with the transnational black diaspora. Musically, timba represents an innovative fusion of previous popular and folkloric Afro-Cuban styles with elements of hip-hop and other African-American styles like jazz, funk and salsa. Timba articulates a black urban youth subculture with distinctive visual and choreographic codes. With its abrasive commentaries on issues such as race, consumer culture, tourism, prostitution and its connections to the underworld, timba demonstrates at the 'street level' many of the contradictions of contemporary Cuban society. After repeatedly colliding with official discourses, timba has eventually met with institutional repression. This book will appeal not only to ethnomusicologists and those working on popular music studies, but also to those working in the areas of cultural and Black studies, anthropology, Latin American st

Download or read book The Beatles By Ear written by Kevin Moore and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By turns impassioned and irreverent, The Beatles by Ear is a collection of essays on each Beatles album, song, chord, key change, and songwriting technique. Song fragments like those of the Abbey Road medley and Sgt. Pepper are examined first as individual songs and then as larger suites. The essays focus on fresh musical insights and avoid the backstories and anecdotes about each song (the "standard talking points") that are common knowledge among even the most casual Beatles fans. The Beatles by Ear is written for musically inclined readers who-like the Beatles-have never learned to read or write music, but can play a few chords and are drawn to understand the creative processes behind the popular song. A central premise of the book is that the Beatles' lack of formal training helped rather than hindered the expression of their natural talent. Whenever possible, theoretical terms and concepts are limited to those used by the Beatles themselves in the interview quotations sprinkled liberally throughout the book. The reader is expected to know two things: the names of the 12 notes (shown in the book with letter names) how to play simple chords in the key of C on keyboard or guitar For those who don't know the names of notes and chords, a series of detailed tutorials is included in one of the appendices. Hundreds of page number references enable the book to be read from cover to cover, or used as a reference book for isolated studies of individual songs or composing techniques. In addition to the main chronological survey of albums and singles, there are separate sections for: each chord the Beatles used each key change vocal harmonies melodic basslines riffs the five rhythm tricks the Beatles used to manipulate the forms of their songs Beatles resources (a survey of the best books, films, podcasts, websites, and YouTube channels used by the author in the process of researching the book) The Beatles canon is contextualized against a backdrop of: predecessors: classical music, jazz, blues, rock 'n' roll and R&B contemporaries: Brian Wilson, Bob Dylan, Holland-Dozier-Holland, Burt Bacharach, Carole King, and the Motown and Stax house bands.
