I used to play the cuatro and I want to start playing again, but I dont know any good places in NYC that sells good cuatros. Does anyone know of a good cuatro store in NYC?
Donde puedo conseguir un cuatro Puertorriqueno en Londres? Toco el tres cubano en una banda de salsa...cuando fui a chile en santiago habia un boriquen que fabricaba cuatros...YOMO TORO el MEJOR!!!
this video was obviously to self promote the oh come on, this guy who is on cuatro is trying to promote himself while upstaging the other members, including the master of cuatro yomo toro. otherwise, the video would show the whole event, and not just the clip of this guy playing. anything to try cashing in using and getting self attention using the world name of other master artists.
You are correct this video is meant to promote my playing, yet the bigger picture is promoting the instrument.
I certainly was not trying to upstage the other players. To the contrary, Harlow's band was on fire and Yomo's solo that show blew me out of the water. A true master, you are correct.
The video was shot by a fan of just my performance.
Harlow and Yomo both are friends and I would never "cash in" on their friendship.
Nick, te quedó nítido, Yo lo que toco es 'remedial four' y cuando te oigo improvisando se me cae la cara de envidia. Meta mano pa'lante siempre con el Cuatro Puertorriqueño!
DESDE LAS ISLAS CANARIAS¡¡viva puerto rico¡¡que viva la musica boricua,,la decima,que aqui en las islas canarias y en cuba se canta..seña de nuestra identidad¡
Love Love LOVE IT!!! My family is moving to Puerto Rico in a few weeks. I am a huge music fan and I am so excited to embrace your countries beautiful, passionate, danceable, Funky music scene:)Muchas gracias-MJ and crew
Nick, your cuatro playing rocks! We as Puerto Ricans feel honored to hear you play our national instrument as one of your own and with such passion...keep it up! We miss your cuatro on stage! Should bring it more often. Fans dig it...lots!
Great that you enjoyed the video! The cuatro is strung like a 5-string bass. So, the starting from the lowest pitch strings you have: B (octave)-E(octave)-A( double)-D (double) - G (double). Shoot over to my website (NicholasRadina.com) for a link to a great Cuatro site, just click on "Nicks Friends". Enjoy!
that was great! i just purchased a cuatro. i havent recieved it yet. can it be tuned in standard tuning like a guitar without the bass string? im really curious because i have no idea how to tune it. thanks.
E pentatonic right?
He should learn G majors.
I wonder how tapped triads sound with this "4".
