Hiya - I asked this question of the Sunday class, but I'll put it to everyone - what's you're favourite rhythm?

My favourite is Sinte!

My favourite rhythm has to be Moribayassa. "When these problems are over I will dance the Moribayassa".

Moribayassa is played and danced if a wish is fulfilled The person whose wish was granted, dresses in a funny way, where the (old) clothing is a mixture of all kinds of pieces that really don't go together. He / she dances around the village for a number of times to express the joy about the wish being fulfilled. Children follow and sing the chorus. After the village has been traversed, the clothes are left outside the village at a cross-road(or burned under a tree).

I like it because of its meaning and the rhythm is easy to play plus we can add lots of variations into it.
