“La Fuerza del Tambor" is a priceless collection of live footage, lecture-demonstrations, and interviews from Matanzas. It includes landmark footage of Makawa drums, as well as fascinating, in-depth conversations with Alfredo Calvo and his drummers. This DVD is a must for all Santeros and students of Cuban folklore. Chris Walker Oakland, CA

“Very rarely does a video come along that captures the power of the drum, and “La Fuerza del Tambor” does exactly that. Sure, there are many great drummers, but it isn’t often that you see drumming so revered by a community that is itself so focused around the drum. And it is rare indeed to cross the line from social to sacred: from drumming for fun to drumming for the gods. La Fuerza straps you into the front seat on a trip to Matanzas, Cuba, into the Lucumi spiritual tradition where the non-initiated rarely go, and where cameras are rarely welcome.” Brad Boynton Rhythm Traders

“Kabiosile Productions and Tina Gallagher have done it once again. The new ethnographic DVD, “La Fuerza del Tambor,” shot entirely on location in Matanzas, Cuba, is another captivating window into the world of Lukumí religion, and in this case Afro-Cuban drumming, in that other Cuban Mecca, Matanzas. For olorishas in the United States and elsewhere, unfamiliar with the variety and variations that exist in that city, this is a welcome addition to the Kabiosile legacy.” Willie Ramos Eleda.org
