Clap and Tap music hard to resist

Tuesday, November 29, 2016

Clap and Tap Choirs of Botswana Association (CCBA) assembled choirs for the fourth annual clap and tap gospel festival held at Mantlwaneng Theatre on Saturday. The festival, which is meant to revive the not so popular clap and tap music in Botswana, was held under the theme ‘Proudly Celebrating Botswana’s 50-Years Of Independence In Style’.

Clap and tap music has similarities of both traditional gospel music and choral music, but the main difference is that clap and tap has no instruments and it combines vocals with clapping of hands in a way that creates a fine tune and tempo.

In order to show the audience what the night had in store, the mass choir started the festival with touching and soulful sounds of Re A Ho Boka Morena.
