It's not a book but a dowloadable video. Accompanied with Pdf and audio files to practice above. I think I can translate the text... I have two another videos like that : Congas - Adaptations of the afro-Cuban folklore Rhythms volume 1 and 3. I prepare one another volume on batà rhythms adaptations on 2 and 3 congas. In future, I will make a video about rhythms like chande, cumbia, jala-jala, orisa, bomba, Porro, vallenato, merengue etc.
I woul'd like to make one about pop, funk, rock, jazz etc.
