Kuimba: Music

The Pygmies' Song Of The Hunt (continued) (from the CD "Mawingu-I Remember Africa")

(Kuimba)
Lyrics and Music by the Wambuti (Pygmies) who live near Itendey village in northern Congo, Africa.
This was a 12 minute piece of music! This clip and the before are just snapshots of this song about hunting an elephant. The elder man got up and danced the dance they do before hunting such an animal. Hunting elephants is not common with the Wambuti but those who try are brave.
