I can personally recommend Joaquin Solorzano in Santiago de Cuba. He has played with Cuarteto Patria in the nineties and now heads a folkloric conjunto as well as plays with Los Guanches and other groups. I studied bongo with him, and he is best known for his bongo work, but he is a master on congas and afro cuban percussion too.
You should be able to find him by asking at Casa del Caribe or Casa de la Trova.
He only speaks spanish, though.
