Salsa is an amazingly interesting genre. It gets its name from being a mix of all different types of latin genres of music, like making a salsa, and it actually has its origins in New York city, which given the name explanation makes sense, because New York is home to a 1.16 Puerto Ricans and another 867,000 Dominicans, but it is also home lots of Colombians, Panamanians, Mexicans, Brazilians, etc, and having all these high level musicians living in such a small area at a time when live music was a lucrative job whether you had education, or even legal immigrant status, it i didn't matter.   

The salsa we are going to learn how to play is in the key of F and it is what is called a 2-3 clave. We are going walk through the chord progression and the chord shapes first then we are going to learn how to play the Montuno, which is the piano groove, arranged for the ukulele. All it really is at its core is some very clever and cool arpeggios played with a lot of syncopation, that might be over simplying it slightly, but at its core that is what it is.

The ukulele tutorail starts with the chord break down, then the tutorial teaches you the chord progression, and then lastly the full on salsa arpeggios with on screen tabs and then at the end we will do a play-along with a backing track. #TenThumbs #Ukulele Tabs - https://www.patreon.com/TenThumbsPro Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tenthumbsproductions 1-1 lessons - tenthumbsproductions@gmail.com.
