The Lion Sleeps Tonight is based on the African melody 'Mbube', written in 1939. This melody can be heard in many various different forms all over Europe, for example in the popular musical 'The Lion King'. In this arrangement a joke has been included. One by one, the musicians leave the stage, leaving the bass player alone, wondering where his colleagues have gone....... Also available for strings!
