Cajon basics lesson - 1st Bulerias Compas with Heidi Joubert from Fernando's Kitchen

A very basic introduction and ex to your first Bulerias compas/groove.
-How to count it
-How to clap it
-How to feel it
-How to play it on the Cajon
-How to play it

[@Riseupdrums]

Counting this as 123,123,12,12,12 can get confusing once the additional accents are added. What she is doing is doubling the count from 12 to 24. Then the first part (123,123) becomes 123456,123456, with the bass on the 1's, and the accented slap on the 4's. The second part (12,12,12) then becomes 1234,1234,1234, with the bass on the 1's and the accented slaps on the 34, 34 and 3. It takes some concentrating to see this, as her ghosting is so subtle. Hopefully counting it this way will help finding the feel of this great groove. Heidi, thank you for all of your videos. They really are a great learning tool.

[@akatakkar]

Thank you Heidi! Working on it and can't wait for the next one

[@Jelrhum]

Very well done! A thousand thanks!

[@designlizard]

Holy moley! This has my hands more tangled up than when I tried to learn "Mrs Mary Mack" in grammar school! Thanks for breaking it down slow, almost got it! Thanks for all you do, YOU ROCK!

[@ChuloDavidcito]

Heidi, thanks so much for your great lessons! I am already doing bulerias, tangos, and solea por buleria after learning the sounds and concepts from you! I got a little head start because I play those on guitar. You rule!

[@ICAMUSICEU]

thanks a lot. I follow the video from the beginning to the end playing cajon and very quickly I got this bulerias compas.

[@nc461]

Very clearly explained and broken down!! After just watching a couple of your videos buleria is already feeling much more accessible to me :) Gracias

[@denisemcilroy7384]

Thank you. I’ve finally got it 😎✌️xx

[@HeidiJoubert]

Yayyyyy

[@Squirrelconga]

I came back to practice to this! I like how the Open accent with your left ✋ helps to "humanize" the groove! When I feel like my Buleria is becoming stiff, I re-work on this! 🙏

[@rosslmccallum]

Re-learning this! Love how there’s so much practice time in the video. I hope you’re well, Heidi!

[@HeidiJoubert]

Ross you legend!

[@skerill]

Fantastic Heidi!! Enjoyed it very very much!!

[@HeidiJoubert]

search Paco de lucia bulerias to get some crazy but awesome bulerias songs!!! It might be a bit tricky for a beginner, but soon I will make a video of playing the bulerias along to one my band's own tracks and it should make it much easier to understand!

[@alejandroblazquezrecio590]

[@Konstantine742]

[@thetarotpirate]

Hi Heidi! Thanks for posting your fantastic videos. I love how you focus on the traditional and I so want to learn my new cajon this way so I can translate some of the great techniques into more modern playing with my friends, but lend that great latin flavour to the music! Awesome! I am almost at speed for this one :)

[@jeconomides]

Hey Heidi - I'm actually learning bulerias on the guitar, and I have been looking for a decent tutorial on internalising the rythm and counting etc. Superb video!

[@samuelnewtonjr3198]

I really enjoyed this one, I loved the drum rhythm a Latina African taste type rhythm. Loved it. 03/15/2022. Tues. 8:16 am. EST. . Sa'm The Drummer

@phillredfox Hey!!! Absolutely, I am currently working on some vids with a guitarist, and the first would be Bulerias!!! Subscribe to stay updated! :-)

[@HeidiJoubert]

[@sirasy]

[@rmw3811]

[@armanmostafapour3694]

tnx lady . very usefull for me

[@sirasy]

BRAVA!VERY CLEAR!GRACIAS!

[@williammartin6980]

Thank you so much for your lessons also I hope your well peace from William

[@phillredfox]

Hi Heidi, thanks for the excellent video, really clear & concise teaching! I was wondering if you could do a vid playing with a guitarist so we could hear the bulerias in context....

[@enriquerus]

Me encanta el acento andaluz... excelente

[@werdixxer]

This is awsome, thanks alot!

[@HeidiJoubert]

Yes thats right, except that the un is beat 12 not 11, there are 12 beats in the bulerias compas.... don't let this confuse you but in english you can count it 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-1-2-1-2 - main basic accents falling on all the 1's.. really doesnt matter what numbers you assign to the different beats, as long as you feel it and can learn to internalise it eventually. :-)

[@OferRonen]

Thanks a lot for all the lessons, thery´re great, and i´ve learned a lot. But sometimes it´´s too fast without a really slow part to understand the movements. Thanks!!

[@luiggialfonso]

What about the Marineras? Zamacuecas, thats a great joy as well!

[@nordfaen]

AWESOME

[@Meymeygwis]

Mucho Gusto Heidi! Gracias for this infectious rhythm! My percussion background is Afro-Cuban with some West African and South Indian. I never touched Cajon but walked into a store & totally fell in love! What an extraordinary instrument! It seems much of conga hand technique is applicable, with some obvious differences. Is this accurate or wrong thinking? I'm mainly a singer/song-writer writer now and see Cajon as offering mucho. Thank you SO much for your fantastic videos & inspiring gifts!

[@Amleth77]

Much appreciated !

[@HeidiJoubert]

Bless

[@phillredfox]

@cajonschool Already subscribed digging your lessons! hope to catch you live on the circuit!

[@neotanquito]

grande maja !!

[@bateriayguitarra5032]

Increible

[@BrianHill]

In English, she counted out this: XxxXxxXxXxXx The five big X's all were at ones. However, in Spanish she counted out this: xXxxXxxXxXxX The five big X's were at dos, tres, seis, ocho and diez. Note that the patterns do not line up. However, if you take the last little x off the end of the English version and move it to the beginning, then all the big and little X's line up perfectly. So the upshot is that she started in a different place in the 12-beat cycle. Just forget the English :)

[@aneesh.joseph]

Thank you so much

[@fabian2076]

muy bueno gracias

[@themevrouwdewi]

@fernandoskitchen Thank you so much! :)

[@julenarrondodominguez9270]

Los otros tutoriales dicen q el acento lo llevan los tiempos 3, 7,8,10 y12. En este video se hace un poco diferente, camviando el 7 por el seis. Es como una version light a mi parecer, pq el acento en el siete es lo q rompe el ritmo y le da mas alma al compas... Lo digo porqueveo que nadie lo hacomentado y me parecia importante. Saluditos!!

[@RajDrummer1]

Hey! This video is awesome! Really helpful! can you suggest any songs to practice to? I've tried finding some but having real trouble being able to hear the bulerias. I can hear a few accents but then i lose it.... What do you suggest?

[@ramanmono]

In English 1.2.3 - 1.2.3 - 1.2-1.2 - 1.2 In Spanish 1.2 - 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10 If this makes any sense at all.

[@jeanbedo]

Man. That's exactly what I thought. I think it is made to make people stop wanting to learn cajon

[@mohamedlahjaily6751]

Thanks

[@marianvillar5908]

👍🎶

[@sirasy]

ok,now that i have practice for 5min. i have understood why do u count that way!'Cause with accents it becomes like u count in english!

[@sirasy]
