Principios de los Tambores Bata Vol. 2: Llamadas (queues)

By Eugenio Arango Noa

This is an instructional book designed to teach the fundamentals of bata drumming through transcriptions of the queues ("llamadas") that are used to call (i.e., queue) patterns (toques) in Afro-Cuban folkloric music. The author is Cuban master percussionist Eugenio Arango, who has over 30 years of experience teaching orchestral and fokloric percussion in Cuba and performing around the world. This book is intended for musicians that want to learn the queues associated with each of the three bata drums, and how such queues align with the toques presented in both Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (this book). This book is unique because: (1) it introduces a novel, uncomplicated notation designed by the author, which shatters the perceived difficulties associated with bata drumming, and (2) it is straightforward, to the point, and remarkably implementable.
