Piano with Alberto M.

In the past twelve years, as a Cuban Musical performer and in my trajectory as a teacher, I have had to develop different initiatives and methods to teach the rhythmic and harmonic movements of Cuban music. Based in this experience I developed this workshop which contains the most complete elements for interpretation and execution of the different styles of popular Cuban music. This workshop is a selection of styles which demonstrates specific examples of technical skills, as well as individual interpretations, representing Cuban music from the 1800’s to the present. Often these examples represent the specific concepts of an arranger, for instance; they reflect the interpretation of the most respected groups and style in the world of music. I have transcribed the instruments lines as originally performed so that it can be practice with an individual score. It is my wish that this material will help you acquire the knowledge that you search for.
