This video includes several instruments and mainly focuses on two women doing vocals. Like much of this religious prayer music, it focuses on a monophony and a fixed tonic. Despite switching back and forth, these two do not use chords and are able to switch when one doesn't know the words or whatever the reason may be. Every instrument is playing a repetitive rhythm but they accent each other. It adds a certain monotonous quality to match the tonal center of the whole song.
