Sounds of the Orisa: Rattles from the Lukumi Tradition

There's a largely empty outlet mall near my house. Some of the spaces are rented out by non-shops -- for example there is a theatre company in one space, and for a while there was an estate sale business taking one of the units. Last time I visited, there was an art gallery in one of the units. It seemed to be locked up (maybe only open by appointment?) but in the windows were a series of Lukumi rattles. The paper in the window indicated they are by Tintawi Kaigziabiher .
