Fair Use Rationale
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion in the article Music of Madagascar is claimed as fair use because:
 * 1) It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the traditionally Malagasy instrument featured here, as well as the artist that performs it.
 * 2) It is a sample of about 24 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording.
 * 3) It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
 * 4) It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
 * 5) It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.

Specific rationale for "Tolombolagne"

 * 1) The lokanga is a distinctive traditional instrument of Madagascar.
 * 2) Vilon'androy are recognized as ambassadors of the traditional music of the Androy people of southern Madagascar.
 * 3) This track exemplifies both lokanga performance style and Androy traditional music, both of which are discussed in this article.
