- Description: At the time when cotton was first introduced into Uganda (largely by the efforts of an indsutrial missionary, Mr. K. Borup, from 1903 onwards) a friend of Mr. Borup came to stay with him from England and brought with him the idea of erecting a roundabout. It was such a novelty that this song "Kyuma" was composed about it. The set of royal Entenga drums are kept and played in a separate courtyard of the Lubili palace. In this recording the separate parts are brought out one after the other. Each drummer plays his allotted drums from the treble player down to the deep bass player while the others continue to strike the side of their drums with their beaters. The first four men play 3 drums each. The fifth plays one drum, and the sixth plays the two deepest toned bass drums. Drum tune. Set of 15 tuned conical drums, laced, closed, single.

Both this instrument and the other xylophone at the Lubili (palace) had been brought in from different parts of the country. They were both slightly out of the tune, it was said. The shape of the individual notes was interesting having two lugs protruding from the lower side to prevent the note from jumping out of place over the two banana stalk supports. The notes are kept in place laterally by their wands about 3 feet long which are sharpened and stuck into the soft stalks between each slat. 1248, 1120, 928, 832, 728, 624, 560, 464, 416, 364, 312, 280, 232, 208, 182, 156, 140. Instrumental tunes, with Madinda 17 note xylophone, loose notes on banana stalks, 3 players.

- Description: One of the royal bands, the flautist, failed upon a certain occasion in their musical duties at the Kabaka's Lubili (palace). They were condemned to death but they pleaded with the Kabaka for leniency as the people of the village from which they came, Bira, had once saved the Kabaka's son, a service which had in the first instance earned them the honour of becoming the royal flautists. The Kabaka (King) forgave them and set them free. This story is the subject of the lyre behind the drum tune here presented. Six drummers play these 15 drums. Four the main set of 12 drums, and two others the three bass drums. The melody of the tune is well brought out both at the beginning and the end of the performance. Drum tunes. Set of 15 Entenga tuned conical drums, laced, closed, single.
