Introducing Professor Calixto Oviedo
photos by Sue Taylor (also studio, food, chauffeur services, moral support ...)
For all of you who have been asking for instructional material for musicians other than pianists and congueros, your prayers will soon be answered, with Calixto Oviedo playing the role of God. After three days of filming I have enough material for at least three mind-bending volumes to launch the Inside Cuban Percussion series. We also planned the NG La Banda Reunion Tour (someone needs to tell El Tosco!).
Calixto with Carlos Caro and Jesús Díaz
It took about 10 seconds for word of Calixto's presence to reach every percussionist in the Bay Area and the filming was attended by such luminaries as Carlos Caro, Jesús Díaz and the legendary Walfredo de los Reyes, all of whom were as knocked out as I was.

RIP Eugenio Arango
Eugenio Arango, the master pecussionist and founding member of Los Hermanos Arango has passed away well before his time. He's left behind a legacy of tremendous music. Tom Ehrlich posted some excellent interview and performance video here = https://www.facebook.com/671512751/videos/771087131674254/)
