Ndugu Chancler Demonstrates How-to Play
Congas, Bongos and Timbales Together
Playing percussion gives you the luxury of creating different sounds
and tambours together. In this video, Ndugu demonstrates how to play
congas and timbales patterns simultaneously. For different sections he
orchestrates various parts to accommodate the song. Ndugu is
using Toca's Custom
Deluxe Wood Congas and Pro
Line Timbales.
Ndugu has appeared on the some of
the greatest pop albums of all time, including Michael Jackson's Thriller,
in many capacities: session drummer, percussionist, producer, co-producer,
writer, instrumentalist and vocalist. Possibly Ndugu's greatest
asset is his impeccable, seemingly metronomic timing. A rare drummer,
he grasps the whole musical picture beyond his instrument.
