- Description
- "The people in Johannesburg must hear this song." This kind of recitative singing is typical of the whole Shangaan or Tsonga group of sub-tribes. It is cleverly performed and demands a good memory and plenty of reharsal. In the words, it must prove an effective recreation for the performers or else they would not expend so much creative energy and time upon perfecting their performances. Topical song.
