This book is named after a South African chant meaning jubilation. It has been written to 'inspire more people to make music and feel comfortable to lead music activities'. The authors believe that even those who think they can't sing, dance, play an instrument or keep in time can lead musical sessions successfully.

This user-friendly book begins with the basics. Tips are given on using instruments and other items for making music. Practical activity guides explain how children can also make instruments from junk.
