Ide Were Were - Charango Arrangement

Traditional Yoruba song dedicated to the goddess Oxum, who opens our hearts to give and receive love, sensuality and sweetness. Hence on charango, that much sweeter!

In key of F#m.

Note : melody is one-voice, good for beginner students, chords in key of F#m are a bit more challenging.

There are many, many version of this ancient chant, this one is based on the chord progression in the version by Deva Premal.
