Cool Stuff Africa and Latin America

The link above goes to a YouTube video about Ross Wilson playing Eagle Rock (African Style). He talks about the balophone. This balophone is sort of like a xylophone. Some members are playing thumb pianos. I also see that one man is playing a drum and a shaker tied to his shoe. He is shaking his foot to play the shaker while he's playing the drum. I really enjoyed this video. It only took two men to very carefully play all these instruments at once to recreate the song. It took a lot of multitasking to do this.

Wow! This video is awesome! The video shows six young adults all playing guitar. They are playing a Mexican folk song. They are divided into 3 different parts. The song is so lovely. It is a traditional tune played in Mexico. They all sound in tune and all seem to really be enjoying this experience. I would love to learn how to play guitar better and join a group like this.

I found it funny that I found a video that was called African Music In Latin America. This video shows Classical guitarist, Anthony Ybarra. This guy grew up playing rock and roll instead of traditional Latin American music. You would think he would definitely be playing it due to his culture. The video shows him playing a couple songs. He goes on to explain the rhythm part. This video is pretty cool. I had never thought about how many different ways there were to play the guitar. He definitely knows what he is talking about. I really enjoyed hearing him explain all the connections between the music.
