Description / content note
"He took a wife chosen from amongst the girls of his own village, when she was very young, but another man stole her away from him." Ngbanda Mandefu, the other harp player, a tall bearded man got up and danced in a style reminiscent of a Cossack dance, snapping his fingers and stamping now and then. Bakia Pierre is a large quietly spoken man who works in a Portuguese butchers shop in the small town of Buta. His songs were greeted with great applause and satisfaction by his fellow Zande in the circle. Topical song, with vertical angular Kundi harp, 5 strings.
