Description:Tal'ane Abusho, Womberech Obbasho and Daarimane Tirpo first perform the wedding song alambushe (file 001). The mourning song hallala is recorded in two versions (file 002 and file 003), of which file 003 is the improved version. File 004 is a conversation and a false start in which we hear Pantu Girpo, the chairman of the Dookko-Ayma community who arranged the recording. File 005 contains the wedding song: sibaako siwaane. File 006 is a recording of the mourning song lammeyssa, File 007 the mourning song hu'e. In File 008 Tal'ane Abusho performs her signature song, a narrative song of the gen'a- and the gabar-antelope. A video recording of this song is found in session TA2012-01-20_001-009. In File 008 performs an autobiographical lyre son in the kaldi baaba-rhythm. Finally Womberech Obbasho demonstrates an undetermined lyre rhythm (File WO2011-12-17_001.wav).
