Description / content note: A new young people's dance. The boys dance in a group and the girls in another within the circle, the two drummers standing on one side. It consists of a number of simple rhythmic steps. The sound of the drums and whistle overshadows the voices in the recording, which in fact is the impression gained by spectators outside the circle of dancers. Saca dance song for boys and girls with two Maanje goblet drums, clapping (-12.03-) and whistles (-11.515-)
