- Description: "Men, rejoice and honour the flag of our King George!" This is the kind of African dance tune in which the qauntity of noise is more important than the quality of its production. The style of singing appears to be influenced by the songs usually taught in schools and cannot be said to be wholly indigenous in form. The women first sing and then circle around to the sound of the drums. They shake to and fro side to side, their fronts counter balancing their sterns in opposite motion. The comparative simplicity of the music and drumming indicates the subtle influence of school (foreign) music teaching. Kasodo dance song for women and girls with Barrel drum, double heade, laced, and a tin (-12.16-) and whistles (-11.515-)
