  • Description: "Come here and I will give you more land. The Chief is pleased with the work of his headman." Four men and women were playing the one drum, each beating out his own rhythm on his quater of the membrane. Strangely enough this did not deaden the sound as one might have expected. Before the drum maker closes up his laced drum he places a small stone inside. This they call 'Moyo wengoma,' the drum's heart. It does not serve any musical purpose but is found in every drum in the region. Marunda dance song for men and women with 1 conical, laced drum.

One girl on each repeat of the tune, throws her pestle up into the air to the next on her left, this girl catches it in mid air and first pounds lightly on the edge of the mortar (the sound of which can be clearly heard) and then in the mortar until it is her turn to throw it on to her neighbor who repeats the process. Since the pestles weigh about 20 lbs. each, this game at the mortar takes considerable skill and strength. Pounding song with mortar and two pestles
