Dada Kaba Ti Binka Tigoro

"Dada Kaba Ti Binka Tigoro" is a vibrant choral piece composed by Edwin Gambo. Originally written as an entry for the FILM '09 festival by the Q.O.A. Choir at the University of Jos, it carries the lively, rhythmic energy typical of Northern Nigerian celebratory music.

The song's lyrics center around themes of hospitality and joy, prominently featuring the sharing of "goro" (kola nut) and expressions of "farin ciki" (happiness). In Nigerian culture, presenting kola nut is a profound gesture of welcome and goodwill, making this piece perfect for festive gatherings, cultural days, or special choir presentations.

Arranged in solfa notation, the piece features an engaging call-and-response structure and rhythmic repetition that builds momentum. Choirs will enjoy the spirited interplay between the voice parts, creating a joyful atmosphere that easily moves both the singers and the audience.
