About this item
Inspired by the traditional folk music of Central and South Africa, this innovative piece will make a great addition to your next performance. Knee slaps and foot stomps make up some of the percussive elements typically characteristic of this music, and the melodic themes and syncopated rhythms will make you want to clap and sing. A welcome addition to the repertoire!
