- Description: The newly composed words of this Mdano are most interesting to anyone long familar with Chopi music. They demonstrate the constant vitality in Chopi musicians and dancers, which shows no sign of declining, a joy in this art form which is uniquely theirs. One great difficulty remains with the recorder; that of attempting to transcribe the Chopi words as sung. Orchestral dance with 14 Timbila xylophones - 2 Chilanzane (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 1 Doli (Tenor), 1 Debiinda (Bass), 2 Gulu (Double Bass).

- Description: This piece is notable for a solo passage towards the end by Chiponi, at 1m. 45s. to 1m. 55s., when he repeats his solo introduction. This is a new device to me and it emphasises the fact that individual Chopi musicians are not afraid to make innovations.
