Description:
This playful setting of a traditional Congolese folk song humorously describes a banana being ladled into a red hat. This simple canon gradually grows from unison into three layers - a great way to develop part-singing skills. Download free parts for shaker and djembe to highlight the rhythmic vitality of African music traditions. There are only a handful of Kiluba-language words which are easily learned with the included pronunciation and translation.
