Title
Intro
blurb
About 12 kilometres from Nairobi city centre on 90 acres
of land is the Bomas of Kenya.
Bomas - meaning "homestead" in Swahili is a project that
replicates various traditional villages in Kenya and preserves
diverse traditional song and dance.
A
nyatiti player is much in demand |
"We
present traditional dances of Kenya from various ethnic
groups. Most of the tribes are covered by our dances,"
says Ben Njeru, the acting training manager of the project.
"I don't like other types of music - I like Kenyan music
more than any other music," he says.
"The music that is played here is music that is the pride
of Kenya."
A two hour show is performed at the Bomas every afternoon
by highly trained dancers and musicians.
There's always a significance to a song or dance or even
to a certain instrument that is being played. |
