Latin Jazz Grooves

Featuring Victor Mendoza
Outstanding! I was under the impression that this was going to be a Latin Jazz Vibraphone lesson, but instead it was a great total Latin Jazz PERCUSSION lesson. Victor covered many historical aspects of this music and explained in vibrant detail the form and function of the clave. He also demonstrated the role and patterns of the Conga, Cowbell and Timbale players in this exciting music. Victor is such a great musician and teacher. I was fortunate enough to study with Victor at Berklee and that experience helped shape my musical ear. I highly recommend this video to drummers looking to expand their vocabulary and ears.
