🎶 African music
calls for active participation to create a community. And drums are the driving engine. These serve as resonators of life stories. They are a mailbox of the nation's inheritance, an instrument of unity and spiritual expression. Thanks to the distinctive syncretism of traditional culture with Christianity, it is the drums that praise God in African churches. Gyil has always been talking drum Dagaarians. He gave the news, warned, celebrated and mediated communication with the gods. Therefore, it is no wonder that the Dagaarians called the organ of the first Catholic missionaries Nasaalgyil - "White Gyil". After the second Vatican Council, encouraged by churches to integrate local languages and habits into the liturgy, the locals first began singing Latin texts into Dagaarian tunes and later translated them into their language. The liturgy began to be accompanied by xylophones, and so he became the center of the Dagaarian Mass.
