Abstract

Tu tu tu - Ta ta is a five-sound pattern produced by the Afro-Latin instrument known as "clave." The clave serves as a fundamental rhythmic cell, integral to every Afro-Latin and Latin American traditional genre. This pattern forms the foundation and structure of the music, guiding the arrangement and direction of all other instruments. In this project, the author metaphorically uses "tu tu tu - ta ta" to represent the concept of home, symbolizing the key to one's inner roots and the map to one's own heart. Through this metaphor, "tu tu tu - ta ta" is explored as the sound of home, encapsulating the essence of belonging and identity.
