n Usiku Mwema (Goodnight)Ceej Oliver. Ceej
Oliver has done it again! Last year, Sisi Ni Afrika was

There's plenty of rhythmic interest, and your singers

is optional, it will add another dimension to your
performance. The rhythmic title phrase, "Usiku
Mwema," is a terrific hook throughout the piece!

bring a brighter day..."
