Burundi’s timeless drumming tradition thrives through generations

Burundi’s drummers are renowned for their simple but unique style.
Their rituals have been in place for more than four hundred years and passed down through the generations.
To keep the culture alive, boys are being trained in the art from an early age.

Al Jazeera’s Catherine Soi reports from Gishora, central Burundi.
