Description: "When we harvest our crops we shall all enjoy dancing the Mlekule." Mlekule is a dance perfromed for the chief at his village. The microphone started beneath the instrument and was moved above when he started singing in order to show the difference of tone between the upper and lower surfaces of the resonator. It is interesting to note that unlike the Likembe Mbira further south, the resonator of this instrument is broader at the top than at the bottom, i.e. the bridge end is the broader. The scale was:- 332, 308, 280, 252, 228, 204, 184, 166 vs. Self delecatative tune, with Marimbe Likembe, box resonated, 18 notes.

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.
