A few Asoyin Songs

These Arara songs are some of my favorite songs in the Cuban repertoire. I hope you feel the love that I do for these beautiful songs! I first heard Sarago and Agomado on Arturo Rodriguez's Interact and Learn Mel Bay Bembe CD/Instruction manual. Dave Lyons shared his versions which are influenced more by Lazaro Ross. Also, the four drum Bembe is his creation. Sieno Magwa Eh comes from a combination of Jeff Porter and John Santos's "Hacia El Amor". Stylistically, the harmonies and heart is influenced mainly by my favorite Afro-Cuban singer Lazaro Galarraga. The notation for these three songs can be found here: http://mrcrowder.us/music/vocals-lyrics/#arara
