Horacio El Negro Hernandez Beyond My Dreams Modern Drummer Festival 1997

#horaciohernandez #leftfootclave #moderndrummer After gaining recognition with Cuban pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Horacio “El Negro“ Hernandez made a name for himself in the United States with Paquito D'Rivera, Ed Simon, Victor Mendoza, Michel Camilo, Roy Hargrove and Santana. This video captures one of the world's most accomplished drummers playing Afro-Cuban styles at Modern Drummer's 10th Anniversary Festival Weekend. Horacio provides some revealing insights into the subtleties and challenges of playing this music along with brilliant performances - both solo and with world-class bassist John Patitucci. Combining mental and physical independence that defies description, Horacio performs spectacular solos and beautiful patterns, all the while playing a continuous clave with his left foot. 1.
