The Mighty Fontonfrom

From my friendly West African music buff reader here is a clip of The Mighty Fontonfrom - large drums used by royal courts in Akan-speaking Ghana. This clip shows the funeral of an important king.You might also like King Bruce welcoming Queen Elizabeth to Ghana in 1959, Adventures with a balafon and Ewe drumming.
