Ebony and Ivory - by Ken Crane

Ebony and Ivory

Millions of years ago, when mankind was born at Africa, along with a wisdom to live in a nature, mankind created music.

Mankind needed the music to synchronize with the universe and nature.
Most of the people were specialized in playing the rhythm, but some of them were good in playing melody.

There once was a tribe who were very good in playing and composing melody.
All of the tribes were in peace for thousands of years, but one day, there was an war between the tribes.

The tribe whom were good in melody lost the war, and they were all caught as a slave by another tribe.
The slaves were discriminated for a very long time, so they decided to escape from Africa.

The tribe went north.
In an exodus, they did not forget to bring their musical instruments with them.
The tribe crossed an ocean, and reached the land where no man has ever gone.

The tribe settled and spread in the land and created their new cultures.
And their descendants kept on creating their own music.

Millions of years later, people in Europe were specialized in creating their own melodies.
While in Africa, people were successful in creating a very complicated  rhythm.

When the people in Europe went to the New World, they brought the people of Africa as a slave.
The slaves had a very hard years at the New World.
But they did not forget their own rhythm.
In order to survive the hard days, they needed to express their own rhythm.

When those slaves became free at the New World,
the rhythm and the melody decided to get married to each other.

And so the people around the world has now heard the perfect music which people has never heard before.
