Video Transcript

"I'm going to demonstrate and teach you the Two, Three Son Clave. If you've already watched the video segment on the Three, Two Son Clave what we're going to do is literally switch those two measures around. So you're starting with the two note pattern and ending with that three note pattern. You put those two together you get your two, three son clave. And, check it out, you're not playing on the very first note. Literally, the very first note of this pattern is a rest. You're not playing on it. So I'm going to count it off and tap the rest. So you can hear this in time. One, two, three, four. One. One, two, three, one and four. One, two, three, one and four, one, two, three, one and four, one, two, three, one and four. There's your two, three son clave."
