When you spend years rehearsing to get the most modern technique, with doubles, paradiddlles, speed, independence, etc. and then you see this guy perform a very simple but very fluid solo, you realize that the drum is much more than the complexity of the performance, it is a language. Poncho is probably not one of the best but there is no doubt that he has a particular sense for talking with the drum.
@@pyrosaxplayer12 Yes, I love the complexity in this instrument, but I see the new generations very obsessed with technique and speed, I don't think it's bad, but I think there are many examples of enormous musicality with simple techniques (not poor techniques, very well executed but simple) and using nothing, little or at the necessary moment the speed. The beauty of music is that there is a wide palette in execution to do things that make a lot of sense. Just as I like Poncho, Little Johnny Rivera or Panga, I also enjoy Giovanni, Pedrito Martinez or Eliel Lazo, and I don't think that some are better than others, it is simply a different way of making music with this beautiful instrument.
Excelente, el maestro Poncho siempre será mi inspiración, rompiendo paradigmas y creando su propio estilo desde el inicio, y valla que esos tambores azules se ven hermosos y suenan mejor de lo que se ven...
I've always admired Mr. Sanchez's "speaking solos"! Players that make you listen have ya ear for life. Thanks for all you do Poncho Sanchez 👊🏽💯❤️ #MacanaRoxie
Un exemple de musicalité dans le jeu de Pancho Sanchez.Enfin des solos agréable où le conguero ne montre pas uniquement un enchaînement technique. "Simple" , efficace et agréable à ecouter. Inspirant. Et le son des tambours sont magnifiques. Dailleurs le mien devrait pas tarder a arriver🙂 Merci Moperc!
Honestly Poncho is boring… a kid in cuba can make this concert 10 times better. It’s not about talent but really about who gets the platform… unfortunately Cubans hardly get it… Poncho would be a good music teacher in a primary/secondary school percussion ensemble though to get the kids started with basics
