“The Percussion Books” series is the result of 25 years in researching, studying and dedication to the music, to the percussion, to the rhythms and to their instruments. The proposal is to create a reference material to satisfy from the amateur enthusiast to the professional musicians and educators. In the face of so many varieties, the techniques, rhythmic variations and historical information here presented are only one side of the amazing percussion universe.

​The sixth volume of the collection goes back to the study of the Latin music, addressing the traditional Cuban rhythms, existing before the fusion with European and African cultures; the Rumba cycle, including its three styles: Guaguancó, Yambu and Columbia; and many other Cuban rhythms evolved since the 1940’s years that composed the music style known these days as Salsa.
