Program Notes

This is a challenging solo for three congas with CD accompaniment. The work includes patterns and riffs in eight distinct Cuban and Brazilian musical styles; Cha-cha-cha, Mambo, African 6/8, Mozambique, Songo, Rumba, Guaguanco, Afoxe, and Samba. The accompaniment CD was created using multi-track recording to capture the many traditional instruments and rhythms unique to each style. The CD also includes numerous “loops” for practice so that the performer can really master the styles required in the solo! high school/college.
