The boys are finding it very difficult to learn the algoza and prefer to sing. This group of boys are learning to sing the Tejaji Ballad from the book and performed during the launch of DVDs at Thikarda on Saturday 30th August 2014.

The two young boys on either side of the algoza player (a bamboo double flute) are learning to sing the previously unwritten Tejaji Ballad from our book. They are founder members of the Algoza Music School at Thikarda and will learn to play this wind instrument to revive this dying art.
