Mama Mapasa in lingala language means Twins mother.I have recreated this Congolese folksong,very popular in Kinshasa,in order to stress the fact that the Twins are warmly celebrated inside the Congolese family.According to the Congolese ancestral customs,the Twins are sacred babies.Therefore,here are the explanation of the lyrics key words:
1.Ke-le-le:onomatopoeia 2. Mama: mother 3. Libumu :womb 4.bana :babies 5.Mibale: two 6. Yaya: My dear .So broadly speaking,the meaning is :One womb,two babies for you, twins mother.This music is suitable for any Recital of Chamber Music repertoire.Technically,the use of the triplets is predominant as this is a danceable music.It could be performed by any categories of players.Also,The costume is multicolored and the faces of the dancers are colored in white.
