Description / content note
-
"I will go towards Nyantungu until I reach Kaluguyu." Four men and women were playing the one drum, each beating out his own rhythm on his quater of the membrane. Strangely enough this did not deaden the sound as one might have expected. Before the drum maker closes up his laced drum he places a small stone inside. This they call 'Moyo wengoma,' the drum's heart. It does not serve any musical purpose but is found in every drum in the region. Marunda dance song for men and women with 1 conical, laced drum.
