Learn Cuban-style Mozambique on Conga Drums!

Although the Cuban-style mozambique rhythm shares many characteristics with Sub-Saharan African music traditions, it does not have anything to do with music from the African nation of Mozambique. The Cuban mozambique features conga drums, bombos (bass drums), cowbells and trombones. Mozambique was invented by Pello el Afrokan (Pedro Izquierdo). Izquierdo’s rhythm made its début in 1963 in Havana on the television program Ritmos de Juventud, with the presenter surrounded by drummers so in tune with each other that they created a piano-like sound, while simultaneously performing the Mozambique dance.
