about

The source for this composition was an African balafon, similar to the American marimba, but with a five-note scale on teak bars resonated by hollowed-out gourds suspended under several octaves. Tines from an African kalimba, or thumb piano, as they are called here, are added as the rhythm becomes more familiar, for counterpoint. The final sound added is a tightly tuned bongo-like hand drum, played with mallets, ending abruptly.
