# Year 5 Music ‘Shosholoza’.

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/blog/IMG_9398.JPG)   5 January 2023   [Mr Griffiths](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/author/LukeGriffiths)   [Year 5](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/category/year-5)

In Music, Year 5 have been looking at South African music. We've been singing a capella and playing instruments along to the song ‘Shosholoza’, which is a song from those who speak Xhosa.

We've learnt that songs sung in other languages can contain sounds that are unfamiliar to us, like the clicks of the Xhosa language.

Brilliant Year 5!
