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.
