Jim Papoulis: Sililiza: SSAA: Vocal Score

score for voice and/or instruments-Composer Jim Papoulis has created an energetic and uplifting work that fuses the rhythms from African American and Latin cultures and uses a text primarily in Swahili interspersed with phrases in Spanish. Supported by shaker Djembe and agogo bell the middle section has the feel of a real celebration with layers of spoken word that lead us to the understanding: 'listen hear stand strong.'
