In this video lesson, Jim
Greiner continues
his series on how-to play the LP Afuche Cabasa. Holding the afuche
with your dominant hand make a shallow arc upwards. Let the beads spin
and then follow the arc back down. Relax and breathe so that the movement
is fluid. Like many instruments start with traditional methods but
experiment and discover your own playing techniques.
