Changüi Pattern and Ensemble

This video was taken in Cuba several years ago in my backyard, and it features a typical pattern on the tres. After that introduction a trio plays the ensemble parts. The ensemble consists of bongo, bass and of course the Cuban tres.


This is a modern interpretation of the changüi ensemble. In the original style the marimbula is the traditional bass instrument. Also, you would have a singer and someone playing guayo.
