Johnny Conga wrote:Split hand style is when you play one pattern in your right hand on the tumba(bass) drum and another pattern on the segundo(conga). Or playing 3 congas with your right hand,bongos between your legs and your left hand playing them. Good example of that type of player was "Master" Henry Gibson(Curtis Mayfield) and Percy James Jr.(Quartet Tres Bien). Giovanni does quite a bit of "split-hand" playing. It's the same as a tabla player, the way they play with hands apart rather together on one. Got it now?....now go practice....JC JOHNNY CONGA..... :;):
