Africa by Toto, arranged for Drumline + Marching Percussion. Want your drumline playing Africa by Toto? Here it is.
The skills needed for this arrangement are mostly diddles/triplet rolls and paradiddlediddles, especially in the snare drums.
Also check out this arrangement on Musescore for a percussion ensemble. That arrangement has the benefit of keyboards and tonal instruments, so it sounds more complete.
But for drumline-only groups, this arrangement is perfect!
One of the most iconic songs of all time—now written for your battery.
This drumline arrangement of Africa by Toto is a full-length, performance-ready piece that closely follows the original recording.
It’s 100 bars of instantly recognizable grooves, rhythms, and melodic phrasing, adapted specifically for snare, tenor, and bass drums.
Originally arranged as a key moment in a competitive field show, this version works just as well in the stands—especially when you’ve got more than a few seconds to fire up the crowd.
Think halftime features, extended timeouts, or as a surprise show-closer your drumline can absolutely crush.
The tenors carry the lead melody with rhythmic accuracy and flair, while the snares anchor the groove with fast roll figures and intricate accent/tap combinations—especially in the chorus.
Basses round it out with a full-sounding foundation that drives the groove without overcomplicating it.
This is an unofficial drumline arrangement inspired by the original recording of Africa by Toto. It is intended for educational and performance use only.
