I think you're videos and modest style of teaching are excellent. And so generous. Thank you.

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Thank you very much!!

[@GregNoguera]

One of the clearest and most effective teachers of percussion on the net, Thanks!!!!!

[@gonzalopaz5754]

Mr.Michael your spirit shines brighter than the sun. Thank you

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Gonzalo Paz Thank you so much! That is a beautiful compliment!

[@victormorgado975]

more than a little bit of help!, This about the best video out there in decades....simple..I come from the Puerto Rican scene and there is no way that anyone would reveal to any one the pattern of practice to play the the quinto like you do in this video...for them is a secret.not so much that it should be a secret, but rather that it is "Power" to know something others dont know and they choose not to share it

[@gcortorreal]

Thanks Michael, you have no idea how long I've been looking for a training like this. I used it last weekend when I got together with my rumberos friends and it worked like a charm ..

[@gcortorreal]

Thanks, I've been looking for this breakdown of the quinto for years. Your lessons are great and easy to follow.

[@luisatpr]

Compadre , muy complacido porque es una mezcla con variaciones....excelente!

[@luismepr1]

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Thank you very much and enjoy it!

[@wrobelwrobelwrobi]

Mr Michael, thank you so much, you have opened doors to the world of percussion to me.

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

You're welcome and I'm glad you enjoy my videos.

[@nikossevdalis233]

You are fantastic you are making it so simple when it sounds so difficult thanx

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Thank you, Nikos! The quinto part in rumba is not easy, but this can be a starting point. I wish you good luck!

[@FreedomPrivilege]

Michael. My journey in the world of Afro-Cuban percussion started many years ago when the resources for learning correctly were very few. You have used this contemporary technology to the fullest, kudos my friend. Your teaching methods and philosophy are exemplary--great foundational material from which to build on and develop individuality. Living in the U.S. now but born in NL (Arnhem area). Ik wens jou het beste en nog veel succes mi amigo

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Heel erg bedankt! Ik hoop dat je nog heel veel plezier beleeft aan m'n KZbin channel! Het ga je goed!!

[@maggieabraham1552]

[@RuggeroArtaleDrums]

Thank you very very much, you are really a good teacher! Many years ago I went to Cuba and I 've been to Justo Pelladito home to take some classes... Now I play djembè, but conga is always my first love! :

[@davidrahman897]

Quinto playing has always been a bit of a mystery to me but now I'm starting to get a handle on it. Thank you Michael!

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Thank you, David. I'm glad that this video is useful for You. On my Patreon site I have Percussion Play Along tracks with Rumba, where you can practise solos: www.patreon.com/MichaeldeMiranda I wish you good luck!

[@davidrahman897]

[@michaelmarotta5947]

Nice Michael. You are always so inspiring and knowledgeable.

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Michael Marotta Thank you, Michael. I am glad that you enjoy my videos.

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Thank you!! I'm glad you like the lessons!!

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

The bass played by the right hand is important. The 2 basses (or palms) with the left hand are important for the timing. I've learned this pattern from my Cuban teacher and he used the bass of his right hand as a strong point where he ended lots of his variations.

[@latin-style]

wow, another super video about rare latin rhythm concepts, thx!!!

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Your welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!!

[@arlingtonguy54]

Thanks. Rumba Quinto seems to be the hardest thing to learn but this helps break it down a bit.

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

@nanigo Hi, thank you for your comment and compliment! Unfortunately I don't have a video. Perhaps in the future, because more people are asking me for a DVD. I'll keep you informed!

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

@InfoRoom If you turn the clave around than you you have to turn the pattern around too.

[@ricovery1]

i think i requested some lesson on thge Yamboo, tres golpes and pozo's comparsas, and the afro cuban beat that made mongo so popular. you're the best brother...Rico Montalvo

[@olowasegun6829]

Hey Michael, how about doing a lesson on Changuito's mano secrete.

[@nanigo]

Most easy to understanding explanation for how to play Rumba Quinto. Thank you for sharing! Do you have video for sale and where can I buy it?

[@ricovery1]

ijust got your message. i just wanted to touch base w/u/2 let you know that the problem was fixed. it was on my end that it was happening. anyway i've been playing for many years just for fun.there was a time i played those neighborhood clubs.i was raised in new york and was foertunate enough to grow up with tony n manny jimenez both went through Juliard school of music. tony ended up w/larry harlow for many years. my 2nd instr was Papi Torres who played w/ tito Rod 4 mny yrs both good inst lkeU

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

@gnog1969 your welcome.

[@ricovery1]

by going to 2230,your site i get all of your videos,but i still can't see your video's. i go to other sites and it works fine. on all of your stuff the screen comes out black with a message that reads; this video is currently unavailable.

[@SenSkywalking]

this is it.

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Mike LP Thanks!

[@MrJamjestteo]

A QUESTION ABOUT A DETAIL... hey, I've noticed that at the beginning of the film you play 3 bass sounds and when you continue with the clave pattern there's only one... Is it something meaningful? I guess there are dozens of ways to do it, personal preferences also are important, but what is the "Cuban" way to do it? Btw, thanks for the videos man....

[@ricovery1]

hi mike, i just went into youtube to check out some of your stuff and upon several attempts i find that all of your stuff has been taken off. wht's up? i really enjoyed your stuff and want to see what happened. let me know how i can get into some site that has your stuff. I think that you give a good ilustration of your work. keep up the good work. ricom..

[@dilsonsilva3205]

Friend can tune a fifth 9 3/4 as conga ?

[@MrVegasTube]

Michael, nice video. what brand drums are you using?

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

+Nelson Vega Hi Nelson, I bought these congas in Cuba in the eighties. They don't make them anymore, because they can't import the from Angola any more.... But I don't know the name.

[@MrVegasTube]

+Michael de Miranda Thank you Michael, mine were bought in the 70's and made of fibreglass. Wooden congas with that traditional look and sound is superior in my humble opinion. 2 questions. Do you moisturize the skins, and what key do you tune each drum?

[@chrislangerhorst374]

sonoc

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Chris Langerhorst Ha Chris, bedankt voor je hulp. We moeten snel weer eens wat afspreken. Ben je nog vaak in Rotterdam?

[@chrislangerhorst374]

ha die Michael , niet zo vaak meer ...

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

That is strange! I haven't changed anything on my channel, my video's are still there. What happens if you go my channel: mdm2230. Can you see my video's there?

[@MichaeldeMiranda]

Perhaps I have to send a message to KZbin, perhaps they know what is going on.... Of course I want everybody to see my video's.
