Product Details


Product Description

"Impepho" is dried liquorice plant burned as incense in a sacred rite of the Xhosa people of South Africa to communicate with ancestral spirits so they may intercede on our behalf. The music is based on African traditional modes with some influences from various African musical traditions. Some of the melodic fragments that develop out of the musical fabric of the piece echo (with some variation and filtering) musical phrases used by traditional healers in their rites.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
