A South African sangoma is a traditional healer and spiritual practitioner, often described as an African shaman, who plays a vital role in the community. They are believed to be called by ancestral spirits to serve as intermediaries between the living and the spirit world, , using divination, herbal medicine, and ritual to address physical, emotional, spiritual, and social ailments.This arrangement for concert band is adapted from the The Nuclear Whales Saxophone Orchestra's recording on its CD, Isotopia. It is a lively rendition of a traditional South African folk song, celebrating the highly revered sangoma. The arrangement is characterized by a lovely melody, driving percussion, and syncopated 3/4 rhythms with a 3 against 2 feel. A certainty to enhance a concert band's program.
