I'm going to demonstrate for you a 2-3 Rumba Clave. This is a very cool pattern because it eludes to count one, because you're not actually playing on count one, you're going to be playing on the note right before count one. Which is going to be, technically, at the very, very end of the pattern. It's the third note of your three when you're playing a 2-3 Rumba Clave. Like I said, it's just like the 3-2, just switched around. Here's what is sounds like with the count off so you can kind of place in your head where the whole thing starts. One, two, three, four, one. (Demo) One, two, three, four. So there's a demonstration, at least, of the 2-3 Rumba Clave. Again, used in a lot of Salsa music. Kind of pushing the tempo a little bit. By not playing on count one but playing at the end of the measure, right before the pattern comes back in to repeat itself. It gives the feeling that you're pushing the tempo along. You're pulling the beat forward a little bit by playing right before where you would expect the downbeat to go. Here's that 2-3 Rumba Clave with an 8th note count behind it. 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and 1, and 2, and 3, and 4, and. There you have it.
