Melón and Alain Videos Released!

Another breakthrough for all timba pianists and bassists! The VIDEO portions of Beyond Salsa Piano and Beyond Salsa Bass (both for Volume 6) have been released. Beyond Salsa Piano 6-9 focuses on Iván "Melón" Lewis -a central player in one of the most important bands of the entire timba era, the Issac Delgado Group of 1995-1998. Beyond Salsa Piano is an instructional (eBook + audio + video), play-along history and anthology of the role of the piano in the Cuban rhythm section –from its first appearance to the present. Melón's 48 video clips were filmed with two cameras, one from the side and one overhead. For every tumbao, we provide three separate videos: a widescreen version of each camera angle and a split screen version combining the two.

VIDEO portion of Volume 6 includes a clip for every tumbao, where we provide three separate videos: a widescreen version of each camera angle and a split screen version combining the two (57 video clips total). Beyond Salsa Bass 6-9 is a 4-volume study of the style of Alain Pérez, one of the most talented bassists, composers and arrangers of modern Cuban music.  The video clips are sold separately.
