Having these instruments will allow our students the ability to have an authentic cultural performance. Anyone can purchase a track to sing along with. You don't truly understand the meaning of the percussion parts in a cultural song unless you are able to experience it live. Playing the djembe live while singing a traditional African piece allows everyone the opportunity of understanding why and how these traditional songs were used in villages. It also allows the students performing the opportunity to perform the music the way the composer/arranger intended it to be performed. All of my students are looking forward to learning to play the "call" rhythms and more while performing some great choral works of music.
