A pun-based piece that plays around with the multiple definitions of the word bongo.
As defined by Dictionary.com:
Bongo: a reddish-brown antelope, Taurotragus eurycerus, of the forests of tropical Africa, having white stripes and large, spirally twisted horns.
Bongo: one of a pair of small tuned drums, played by beating with the fingers
This piece attempts to illustrate both of the very different meanings of this word, by having a bongo, play the bongos.
