Description:An incomplete shulshula (bamboo flute) quintette from Zabba around the musician Shid'ano Tabbase play three songs with the following titles: File 001: dookkí d'aad' ('Dookka snail'), File 002: wullúutta ~ wullíitta (= name of the flute with the highest pitch), File 003: dím woysa ('bamboo flute from Dime'). Unfortunately, the 5th shulshula, named dul'í, is missing. Instrumentation during the recording: Leading flute (wullúutta) played by K'alamo Nigaato (2nd from right on the photo linked to this session), responding flute (máhitts) played by Mahane Woraas (left on the photo), third flute (goo'á) played by Burgano Koto (2nd from left on the photo), fourth flute (gaaziná) and recitation (gáyrints) by Shid'ano Tabbase (middle on the photo), recitation also by Amaanacc Dasho (right on the photo). File 004 demonstrates the melodies and rhythms played by each of the five shulshula-flutes for the wulluutta-song (cf. File 002). File 005 demonstrates the melodies and rhythms played by each of the five shulshula-flutes for the dím woysa-song. In File 006 Shid'ano Tabbase performs a lyre song, which she called kaldi baaba (note, however, that another musician identified the rhythm as kaa'ooda). In File 007 Shid'ano Tabbase performs a lyre song, which she called shaashinda (note, however, that another musician identified the rhythm as bambane). In File 006 and 007 the lyre is plucked.
Shid'ano is member of a shulshula-quintette and she also plays the lyre. She learned to play the lyre from her father.
