Practicing Advanced Latin Rhythms for Guitar and Bass
Hindu Konokol system used as an easy and extremely fluid bridge in transitioning live between the Western cut time metrics for rumba clave and Brazilian rhythms which have no clave concept or clave feel as played in Brazilian culture"
Great for my guitar and bass students to ponder:
"Last night-on guitar- untill 3 am today...
Getting familiar with rumba clave in western cut-time and Indian Konakol metrics simultaneously (without stopping) makes it easy to shift from rumba to Samba, to Bossa Nova ( 16ths on ride cymbal) and Frevo without "counting time" while you play.
By the time one plays, one does not count time during playing.The time and clave have to be in the body, as well as the brazilian 16ths accents which have no clave concept in Brazil. Brazilians do not think of clave.
The samba and frevo and Bossa Nova are purely felt and learned in the day to day life. They are learned as spoken language is learned like all other cultural rhythms are in other cultures. One of the differences between the Brazilian rhythmic culture and the central american rhythmic culture is the absence of clave."
