Please give me a call if you have any questions about the Afro-Cuban Drumming by Glen Caruba. Afro-Cuban jazz rhythms: Traditional Afro-Cuban jazz is based on either the 3:2 son clave pattern or the 2:3 son clave pattern. These patterns are themselves West African in origin. 

Traditional African percussion took a detour through Cuba to develop an entirely different style of drumming. These influences fused with African drumming styles to develop a sound that has influenced American music and music throughout the world.
