The Chumba

 

  • Warasa's Ronald Raymond McDonald demonstrates how to play Chumba - one of the core 7 rhythms in Garifuna music - on the Segunda drum, and then plays a short song with his father Mario and one of his friends. Chumba is traditionally a rhythm and song that is sung and danced by women. Women usually sing chumba songs about everyday activities such as farming, cooking etc.
