This Traditional Swahili song with its energetic rhythms, stopped techniques and optional percussion is accessible and fun. The call and response and chord voicings imitate the sound of traditional African choral music. The melody serves as the "leader," with the remaining chimes as the "chorus." The reproducible, optional drum part (talking drum, djembe, hand drum or similar instrument) is included.
