Conga Santiaguera -- El Golpe Del Pilón (updated)

7/4/2019

 
The "main groove" in the conga Santiaguera (a.k.a. "Conga Oriental") rhythm is known (to those "in the know"!) as Pilón.  I will deal with the two variations, Columbia and Masón, in a later post.

This post has updated patterns based on a study trip to Santiago de Cuba in 2019.
Many thanks to maestros:

Lazaro Bandera Malet, musical director, La Conga de Los Hoyos

Richard Lineonel Ferrara "Kiki", musical director, Conga Paso Franco

Raul Lopez Martinez "Raulito", director, Conga San Agustin
