- Description
- "Excuse me, father, I want to make it clear to Juma that he must not play with me, lest he die." The singers are all Nyamwezi who have come down to the East coast from the interior near Tabora and have now settled permanently at the coast in or around Dar-es-Salaam. These Nyamwezi singers of Dar-es-Salaam have an attractive way of singing their songs repeating each stanza after the soloist. This style may well have been copied from the Arabs or Swahili. Tatu Binti Ali is the young wife of Idi Selemani the organiser of the group. Hiyari ya moyo dance song for men and women..
