#### Esteban “Tongo” Hernandez

Guest Artisan & Candombe Heritage Specialist
Esteban Adrián Hernández Silva is an Afro-Uruguayan percussionist and a master drum maker. He is a descendent of a traditional Afro-Uruguayan Candombe family, one of a few families that preserved the socio-cultural heritage of Candombe as a way of life. This family is known as “Las Catatumbas” or “Los Catas” of the Puerto Rico neighborhood of Montevideo, Uruguay. His mother, Afro-descendant María Alba Silva Nuñez “Chelita”, was a percussionist and dancer, as well as one of the first women in Uruguay who paraded and played drums in the carnival. She also performed along with her relatives in the “Llamadas Oficiales” as well in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s carnivals.
Esteban’s studies in hand drumming cover Latin America, particularly Afro-Uruguayan and Afro-Cuban music. Since he was a child he was surrounded with Candombe and popular music, learning from different ensembles and percussionists including: Añoranzas Negras de Macho Lungo, Fantasia Negra, Serenata Africana, Canela y su Baracutanga, Raices, Sierra Leona, and more.
He currently resides in Buenos Aires, Argentina since 1982, as an educator, percussionist, and master drum maker. He plays a range of instruments including congas, bongos, Candombe drums, Batá drums, and Peruvian cajón. Esteban participated with Al son de Cuba of Alberto Bone, one of the first Afro-Cuban dance troupes and ensembles in Buenos Aires, Argentina as well as with El Solar de la California led by Alexander Batista.

El taller sera en Cheltenham. Podamos ir juntos desde el centro.
