"The band Azumah (Azumah is a Swahili word meaning love, peace and happiness) formed in 1955 and comprised of a number of Marimba players, African drummers, percussionists, vocalists and African dancers. The group has appeared in numerous films along with dozens of TV appearances and recorded many albums over the years. They were the major traditional music contribution for the African musical “Sikulu”. The marimba is a musical instrument in the percussion family. Keys or bars (usually made of wood) are struck with mallets to produce musical tones. In Africa, most, marimbas are made by local artisans from locally available materials. The keys are arranged as those of a piano, with the accidentals raised vertically and overlapping the natural keys to aid the performer both visually and physically." (Bandcamp)
