In fact, each of our bodies is naturally brimming with various forms of music and rhythm: the beating of the heart, the movement of muscles, the rhythmic flow of breathing, and the natural pauses in speech.
……
The music of the African continent was born from such primal origins. Mandinka music in West Africa is a tool for play and communication, a way of life in everyday existence.

Because in this region, people are immersed in enchanting drumbeats, songs, and dances from the moment they first enter the womb—fetuses move their entire bodies in rhythm with their mothers’ every sway, listening to music together. All African peoples who are gifted in singing and dancing are born with an innate musical talent, nurtured by the rhythms and melodies that surround them. Music accompanies every ritual and celebration, becoming an indispensable part of daily life. So we hope that you, too, will be blessed with this gift. The artists will prepare small instruments and decorative accessories for the audience, inviting everyone to play, sing, and dance alongside them during the performance. You are not just a spectator—you are also a performer!
Let your body and soul revel in music.

In the world of music, the primary criterion for assessing a person’s musical aptitude is their sense of rhythm. Children can begin learning music with percussion instruments, as percussion is the easiest to play and doesn’t involve concerns about pitch accuracy. Through memorizing, imitating, understanding, and responding to rhythmic patterns, percussion allows children to engage in rhythmically coordinated movements—and because it requires coordination between the left and right hands,
It can effectively stimulate children’s potential development and enhance their physical coordination and balance.
