( I really have not seen this really well, but it is hand written and it very long-77 pags.- It needs Acrobat Reader, so bring some lunch while it opens)

This particular site was made by my teacher.
He is amazingly proficient with everything concerning the conga, and was a life-long musician with a high degree of music fundamentals as a basis long before he began studying Afro-Cuban music in the early 80s.
Probably the main uniqueness that this site offers is Dave's own notation style, which resembles Western notation, but has changed the position above or below a bar to represent left or right hand. The filled note means a bass, an empty one means a tone, an X a slap, and a strike through a muff.
This notation style has spread throughout the Colorado region due to its undeniable logic.

The site itself consists of mainly fundamentals, basics, notation, and rudiments/exercises.
