In addition to an overview of the evolution of “Spanish tinge” and Latin Jazz from its beginnings to the fabulous mambos of Mario Bauzá, we find here also an in-depth study (with practical applications) on the most typical polyrhythmic modules used in Afro-Cuban piano improvisation and Latin Jazz, taken from the work of two of his famous masters such as Charlie and Eddie Palmieri.
