About Manny Oquendo Y Libre

Manny Oquendo (January 1, 1931 – March 25, 2009)[1] was an American percussionist of Puerto Rican descent. His main instruments were bongos and timbales. [See: "Timbale Demonstration" (Manny Oquendo) and "The Martillo [Bongo] Pattern" (Manny Oquendo).] Oquendo's timbale solos were famous for their tastefully sparse, straight forward "tipico" phrasing.[2] His solos also incorporated the rhythmic language of the folkloric quinto, the lead drum of rumba.[3]
