Get Authentic - Cuban Tres with Efráin Rios - Episode 3
Introducing our third Get Authentic episode!
This time we're shining the light on the Cuban Tres, played expertly by Cuban composer, artist and producer Efráin Rios.
Efráin showcases his skill as a maestro Tres player, which is a three-course chordophone of Cuban origin. Its sound is a central characteristic of Cuban Son, a style of Afro-Cuban music that forms the bedrock for most forms of Salsa and Latin jazz music.
This series showcases unique instruments from around the world, being expertly played by local musicians.
