Latin
Clave - Clave is a 2 bar phrase in 4/4. It is played
with two small pieces of wood that are hit together to create
the main rhythm in Latin music. For drum set applications
we can
use a cross stick to simulate the sound. The examples below
show where the accents would fall if played with eighth notes
on the snare.
