“Siyahamba is a South African folksong and means “we are marching.” The rhythmic feel is most important, and, depending on the performance, you may choose to add some physical movement or choreography. If percussions players would like to add some improvisation, that is also suitable. Dynamics are especially important.”    –     Amy Rice Young
