Tue, Tue

Difficulty: Moderate easy

Quick Summary

This lively song uses Akan/Twi language which is spoken in many parts of Ghana. The phrases are repetitive which makes the language and music easy to remember. There are two alternating sections, the first includes the descant and consists of 4-bar syncopated ostinati in each part. The contrasting section reverts to two part harmony, mostly in 3rds. The arrangement of this catchy song creates an enthusiastic infectious mood.
