Botswana culture is best expressed in music and dance. There is a cordial existence of traditional folklore and modern music in the local music industry.
Indigenous Botswana music is predominantly vocal accompanied by a clapping of hands to produce a muffled rhythmic sound at heart-beat pace; but it has been modernized by introducing modern beat and increased its tempo.
Traditional folklore uses string instruments like segaba, segankure and setinkane. Renowned local artists like George Swabi and Kwata-E-Shele use the string instruments to produce unbelievably sweet sounding melodies.
Then there is the modern music produced in Botswana. Modern music which is extremely popular in Botswana comes from South Africa, United States, Europe and other parts of Africa.
