Regarding voicing--

a. What would have been the traditional instruments in Africa at the slaves' point of origin?

b. What instruments would they have had at their disposal on the plantation? Banjo, harmonica, a few fiddles?

Kalimba?

MIDI banjo in the voice range given is awful. Xylo, vibes, marimba?

Choir ooh/aah is awful....
