The nederlandslied, a song in Dutch or Afrikaans descended from old Dutch repertoire, sets a solo voice with dense melismatic ornament against the choir, while the moppie is a fast comic song. The choirs are accompanied by a string band of guitars, banjos and bass, with the ghoema drum in the comic songs. The banjo card stands in for the banjos and the hand-drum card for the ghoema.", "recipe": "classic modern cape malay choirs, ballad Poetry. many notes per syllable. global traditional polyphonic choir ensemble, parlor acoustic guitar, credited banjo hand drum source unspecified, natural acoustic bass credited acoustic bass. field recording.
