Description / content note
-
The Zande men were found by the Beligians to be the only ones brave enough to handle and tame the wild African elephants, young elephants are caught in the forest or open plains and trained in much the same way as Burmese elephants. The Zande cornacs are a gay lot and much of their recreation time in the forest is spent in dancing. The Narone is a circle or ring dance with the drums playing in the center. This recording was made at Nepoko, the rest camp for sick elephants near Andudu in the northern edge of the Ituri forest, where they are cured under the supervision of M. de Medins, the renowned hunter and game warden. Narone dance, with 1 wooden cylindrical slit drum and 1 small bass drum, laced.
