Summary of This Book
Titled Salsa and Afro Cuban Montunos For Piano, this book by Carlos Campos offers a particularly clear approach to entering the language of Latin piano. Over 92 pages, the author gathers a large number of examples highlighting essential rhythmic cells, right-hand and left-hand patterns, as well as montuno variations used in salsa and Afro-Cuban styles.
The strength of this method lies in its practical dimension: beyond theory, you work on motifs directly applicable in group playing, to learn how to support the rhythm section and establish a solid accompaniment. It is also an excellent foundation for developing reliable rhythmic reading, as syncopated figures and hand coordination are at the heart of the repertoire offered.
To enhance autonomy and playing enjoyment, the book is accompanied by audio files including piano tracks and percussion tracks on many examples. This allows practicing placement, phrasing, and consistency under conditions close to real playing. MIDI files are also available, useful for analyzing, slowing down, and repeating certain passages.
Author originally from Lima (Peru) and passionate about Latin music for over 20 years, Carlos Campos delivers here study material appreciated by many pianists: an effective method to finally find the "Latin groove" and understand how an authentic salsa accompaniment is constructed.
