by Fidel Morales (Author)
In 2010, master drummer Fidel Morales published his Afro-Cuban Techniques for Drumset and Percussion, Volume 1, in which he illustrated the concept of Latin rudiments, mainly based on the accents used in Cuban music. Now, in his second book, Afro-Cuban Techniques for Drumset and Percussion: Volume 2, he included rudiments based on phrases -not only from Afro-Cuban genres-, but also from universal musical styles, which he combined with ostinatos that contain patterns directly linked to Afro-Cuban music, such as the clave or and other variations of the genre, polyrithms, coordination, and more. A book for the sophisticated drummer or percussionist who wants to acquire new skills and comprehension of the roots of Latin Music.
