- Description: The Gonda was danced by a small group of dark skinned boys and girls who were dressed in the equivalent of the ballet dancers 'Tutu', a short multiple skirt made of banana stalk fibres which exaggerated every movement of the hips. It was one of the most pleasing and attractive dance displays by child dancers in the whole of East Africa, all of whom were expert performers. The excessive noise of the drums and the somewhat shrill voices of the singers do not do justice to the expert dancing which went with them. Gonda dance song for men and women, with 4 Mabumbumbu cylindrical drums, pegged and footed (-14.01101-), 1 Mushondo conical drum (-14.21201-). 1 Kaamuri goblet drum (-14.51101-).
