Today we are heading to New York, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Panama, Cali or anywhere that you can hear the beautiful rhythms of salsa ringing out in the streets. These are three piano salsa rhythms, known as Montunos, arranged for the ukulele. Each one is in the 3-2 clave and arranged in the same key. They will start with the easiest and get progressively harder, the first with a basic chromatic bass line and simply chords, the second having more of a classic salsa sound and the third builds of the second but with more 8th note runs making it a little bit trickier than the second, but familiar and very cool and fun to play.   

Salsa is a very rich music in terms of rhythms and harmony, the chord progressions are as deep and complicated as any jazz or even classical chord progression with dominant7flat9 chords, augmented chords and mb5 chords being the norm. The romantic salsa that is created to day is basically a simple pop version of the older music with the same drum beat and basic chord progressions, but the old stuff, the brava, is an extremely rich, harmonically and rhythmically complicate and deep style of music that is worth exploring. If you are new to the music try anything old from Fania, Hector Lavoe, Ruben Blades, Los Hermanos LeBron and Joe Cuba to get you started. Amazing music.
