Today I finalised my composition. I finalised the percussion played along with the second verse. When adding percussion, I noticed that my melody was slightly out of time but I left it because I was still happy with it. From verse A to verse B, the song calms down, particularly from percussion in verse A to percussion in verse B. The melody is rather different from verse A to B but the tonality is the same. I included call and answer (commonly used in African music) in verse A, as well as verse B being a longer answer to verse A. After completing my African composition, I am very happy with my interpretation and composition of African music.
