  • MUCHO YOMO MUCHO TORO

  • THE MASTER AT PLAY!!

  • exelente !

  • The greatest cuatro player you will ever see walk this earth! He is truly the king of the cuatro. What was more amazing was that He didn't even know how to read musical notes, he just played by ear. When he played with Fania, they would let him listen to the track then he would learn it & just know how to play along. That is true God given talent!

  • como puedo bajar estos videos? ocomo los puedo conseguir?

  • This was a spectacular performance! Straight from the isla perla del caribe,man what more can you ask for. Viva Puerto Rico!

  • chequeate a Pancho Amat para que lo conozcas!!!!!

  • to jroque250, you can compare a 12 guitar wit te Cuatro 'cause the space between strings are biger in th ecUATRO, i donn't why you boricuas call it Cuatro if it have 5 set of strings.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!. You need to see play the Cuban Tres it have 3 pair of 2 strings and wow . What can I tell u? no palabras my brother jajajaja

  • @202699e My friend look at the history of that instrument and you will se that its call Cuatro cuz in the beginings of that instrument it use to have 4 double strings. But it had an evolution to five and they decide to not chanche the name because of the history. The guitar has only 6 strings, and if you put it double strings is a 12 string guitar but its still call guitar dosent it. Brasilian guitar has 7 string and its call Violao man but stil call guitar.

  • @202699e First, I'm not Boricua, I'm Cuban. Second, it's called a "cuatro" because it had 4 strings originally. It then evolved to 8 strings and finally to 10 strings like the one shown here. Third, the point is that it is difficult to articulate an instrument that is so short with double strings on it and this one is being played so well by an old guy. Finally, I'm glad you like the Tres Cubano. I take the Cuatro Boricua over it any day of the week.

  • Virtuoso. Talento Natural.

  • SE JUNTARON LOS GUAPOS

  • victor guillermo toro vega{yomo toro}nacio en el barrio ensenada en guanica puerto rico.uno de los mejores cuatristas de la isla ,comenzo tocando en trios y tocando musica campesina a tocado con los mejores artistas del genero de salsa,tambien grabo con el famoso trio los panchos.trabajo con los cuatro ases,tito lara,felipe rodriguez,mario hernandez,cheito gonzalez,ramitopero lo conocemos mas por tocar con willie colon,hector lavoe y las estrellas de fania.

  • hey JRoque the instrument has 5 sets of 2 strings

  • @jukapele07 Kinda late for a response but yes, a typo there. Meant 5 sets are you point out. I had one so I should know.

  • This was breath taking!

  • Quick reference notes for those who don't know what's happening here:

    1. The player is 76 y/o and still going strong

    2. The instrument, called a "Cuatro" has 4 sets of 2 strings each. If you've ever tried to play lead on a 12 string guitar, you know how hard that can be.

    3. As already noted, it's strung right handed and played by a lefty (a la Jimmy Hendrix)

    4. Once again, all that talent comes from the tiny, 90 x 30 mile island of Puerto Rico. Simply amazing.

  • Tomo rocks around the clock!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • he definately has the quatro strung right handed

  • Is he playing lefthanded with the strings put on righthanded?

  • This is Musica authentica Boriqua. From no other part of the world will you hear this insturment be played with that great virtuso embellishment. Que viva La Isla Del Encanto Y que siempre Yomo sea su Hijo preferido.

  • @ESK187 NODOUBT YOMO THE BEST:)

  • i just noticed he plays a right handed cuatro upside down. He must have learned this way, i guess when he learned as a kid he didn't have his own and practiced on other peoples instruments who were right handed. Interesting.

  • Gracias a Dios.... Yomo Toro, "no... el sabia tocar", nooo ... todavia sabe tocar. Viviente "Enciclopedia del Cuatro"..todavia tenemos la suerte que esta en la Tierra. by the way yo no soy el,ni puse ese nombre de chiste...todo lo contrario..soy uno de sus "superfanaticos" desde que lo vi por primera vez hace casi 50 anos ago.
