ROBERTO CONCEPCION

I consider this work an essential one for anyone who is immersed in the world of percussion, in the broadest sense of the word- from total beginners to highly demanding professionals.

Thank you for bringing your knowledge and experience into this to-the-point and valid adaptation of our rhythms, thereby letting the Cuban idiosyncrasy enter contemporary music.

Well done!

CALIXTO OVIEDO

There is a lot to say about Cuban percussion, but when it is in the hands of the multi-percussionist Yoel Páez, we are listening to great words.

I consider it an honour to be able to speak a little bit about this musician. Without doubt we are in the presence of one of the most accomplished Cuban drummer-percussionist: highly creative and innovative.

What's more, and this is the most beautiful thing, he has maintained his roots. Having been born in Matanzas, the hub of the Rumba, is a privilege which permits him to navigate straight to his goal.

All his work is worthy of respect and admiration, his style is his signature, as we can see in his collaborations with Pablo Fg., Isaac Delgado and many others. Wherever he decides to be, his stamp is recognized and valued.

We see Yoel combining all types of Afrocuban rhythm, thus making a hotchpotch of flavours and feelings, which these days is rarely found in a drummer this young.

You will see the rhythm machine that characterizes Yoel in the combinations offered in his book.

Thank you, Yoel Páez, for your work, thank you for your wisdom.

And, for sure, I will be the first to buy the book in order to continue learning.

LUIS CONTE

This book is fundamental to the library of any percussionist. The author adapts the Afrocuban rhythms in an incredible way to the drum set and the percussion set, dealing, furthermore, with aspects as important and basic as, for example, independence.

Thank you very much, Yoel! 

JESUS SALVADOR “Chapi”

A book that reflects an entire culture: the Afrocuban culture. With a strong pedagogical background, grounded in an industrious tradition, and with a great dose of modernity filtered through the multidisciplinary complexity of the drum set.

Thank you, Yoel!

ANGEL CELADA

Yoel´s wisdom has made it possible that this superb work is essential for perfecting styles like Latin Jazz, and is of invaluable help for many others.

Thank you, Yoel!

JULIO MONTALVO

At last a book that shows us the rhythmical cells of the Afrocuban rhythms through numerous examples brought to the Cuban percussion set and the drum set. To all of this are added the pedagogical skills and professionalism of the author, making this work a guide that will serve not only percussionists of all levels, but also composers, arrangers, producers and musicians from all fields.

Thank you for so much determination and talent, which makes us hope for volume 2.
