about

The presentation to the Drum is from the ceremonies that the newly initiated priest must undergo. The newly initiated priest must first be presented to the drum ("Anya", which is an Orisha ) before attending Bimbe's and Tambors (spiritual parties held for the Orisha to bring blessing to the community and individual(s) responsible for hosting the bimbe/tambor in honor of the specific Orisha(s)). This Album is Book One of Three that span the process that follows "The Year In White" for the Iyawo.
