In a time of increased multicultural awareness, Bwana Awabariki offers an ideal piece of African culture for both churches and schools. The song emphasizes rhythm, blend, and African-style vocalism with broad, open chords and the familiar low, low bass part. This warm a cappella blessing would be especially effective with added percussion. Well suited for World Communion, mission emphasis, or any multicultural gathering, Bwana Awabariki is fun for SATB or TTBB ensembles.
