1.0 INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 1 INTRDODUCTION This chapter covers the following sub-topics: introduction, background of the study, statement of the problem, purpose of the study, value of the research, definitions of terms, scope of the study, literature review and methodology. 1.1 BACKGROUND Famo is a term used to describe Basotho music sung in Sesotho which started with concertina as the key instrument and later accordion and drums.
