Rukidi
Description / content note
The greater African chiefs would, in the old days, always have their court musicians to perform special functions, one of which was to play early in the morning to waken the chief's household. This duty was performed in the past by the Ntimbo drummers of the Mukama of Bunyoro. "Our Mukama who speaks with the clouds the most learned and wise Mukama, who has been to England." Ntimbo praise song with four Ntimbo Goblet drums, pinned, open, ling stem and small foot. For holding under the arm (not for standing).
