The bongo is a bovine animal native to Africa and is a near-threatened species. Today, it is probably more famous as the name of a percussion instrument originating from Africa. This piece is written in a boogie-woogie rhythm, and it is recommended to be swung freely. Moreover, the tempo intended by the composer is quite fast. The middle section becomes Andante all’ gospel (Andante, in a gospel style). It would also be enjoyable to perform improvisationally with percussion instruments such as bongos.
