South Africa
[Description panel] (with incomplete estimation) Called the “Rainbow Nation” for its immense cultural diversity, South Africa is composed of its original settlers, the Khoisan, plus the Bantu, Nguni, and Sotho people, European colonizers, and descendants of Asian slaves and immigrants. The nation's music is equally diverse. A comples array of musical bows originated among the Khoi and San peoples, before spreading 10 Bantu speakers who came to the area fater. Drumming is indifenous only amoung the Bantu Tsonga, the Verda and the northern Sotho Pedi. On the Western Cape, discendants of the ... and Javanese, Malaysian, and Indian slaves now have a shared ... ... in the Cape Town M... C... (... by 19th century American minstrelsy). The ghoema drum ? is central to the music. Various other groups imitated 19th century European guitar making, resulting in the Khoi ramkie and Zulu igogogo. We read about the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) on Trip Advisor - it was the top rated attraction in Phoenix - and now we can see why! The museum is dedicated to musical instruments from around the world - the collection is fascinating, the exhibits are great and the hands-on displays were fun. We spent almost 5 hours here and still felt rushed - this place is definitely worth a detour. I know nothing about musical instruments so if you happen to know what a particular instrument is, please feel free to comment on it. I tried to include as many labels as possible. The museum is in Phoenix, AZ - we visited it in March 2014. |
