Who could imagine an Africa without
music? Africans have been beating drums, dancing to guitars
and singing to other traditional instruments for generations past.
Music is a way to honor the dead, celebrate new life, enjoy the
blessings of a new harvest or to express so many other emotions.
Music and singing
are a pleasure enjoyed by Africans everywhere. Yet styles of instruments
and songs differ dramatically from one part of the continent to
another. Africa is a rich in musical diversity. From mbiras played
in Zimbabwe to the doringa violin from Ghana... and of course the
very well known Djambe of west Africa, Mama is always on the search
for new ways to bring you the joy of African music. Whether you
are already skilled at a traditional guitar and looking to try out
a new instrument to express yourself through, or you are just looking
to have a beautiful piece which you can hang and display in that
special part of your home; Mama hopes you will find what you are
looking for.
Mama also does
her best to bring you traditional games and music so that your children
can learn how other children entertain themselves. Mama is working
hard to find new treasures that you can enjoy with your children,
grandchildren, or that favorite neice or nephew. So please keep
an eye out for new items. |
