Percussion Guitar Music is based on African and Afro-Cuban rhythms and by imitating archaic percussion instru- ments. Kalimba is the name of an African "thumb piano". Wooden tongues of different lenghts are attached to a wooden sounding box. The tongues are plucked with the thumb. The kalimba–sound is imitated on the guitar by inserting a handkerchief underneath the strings next to the bridge, thus damping the strings. The ratling drone of the bass– kalimba is effected by touching the two bass strings after having crossed them.

Percussion Guitar Music est basée sur des rythmes africains et afro- cubains ainsi que sur l’imitation d’anciens instruments de percussion. Le kalimba est un piano africain qui se joue avec les pouces. Les lames de bois de différentes longueurs sont fixées à une caisse de résonance de bois et sont pincées avec le pouce. Pour en imiter le son à la guitare, on glisse un mouchoir sous les cordes, près du pont, ce qui a pour effet d’amortir le son.
