Music Of The Sudan The Role Of Song & Dance In Di- Music of the Sudan / Various (CD)
Music is a dignified expression for the Dinka tribes of Southern Sudan. Here is a presentation of hymns and war songs of the type that are sung at a funeral for a chief, in this case, that of scholar Dr. Francis Deng's father.

Extensive liner notes include English translations.
