What is Understanding Afro-Cuban Clave Patterns about?

The clave rhythm is used in Afro-Cuban music genres like rumba, conga, son, mambo, salsa, and Latin jazz to provide temporal organization. There are two main clave patterns - son clave and rumba clave - which originated from sub-Saharan African music traditions and are also found in other Latin American genres. Clave patterns are played using two wooden sticks and can be expressed in both triple-pulse and duple-pulse rhythmic structures.
